Email Etiquette Rules
Rules of digital engagement
Social media survival skillsAnne-Marie Beilveau, ArtSci ‘12, is a longtime BlackBerry owner and her Facebook friend count of over 700 is impressive. She struggles to navigate the confusing world of social media.
Together, we created a list of acceptable dos and definite dont’s in today’s digital culture.
On emoticons
Inappropriate for the professional world, emoticons should be reserved for friends only.
“I’ll use them in facebook or in texts,” Beliveau said. “But for a boss or an adult it takes away from whatever you’re saying, if you’re trying to sound professional.”
On the use of smartphones
Despite social media’s availability, it’s not polite to always be on a phone.
“I feel like it’s rude to text in public,” Beliveau said. “In a restaurant with people … I’m not a fan of leaving my phone on the table.”
On BlackBerry Messaging
One of the most infamous features of the BlackBerry is its instant chat service, which allows a sender to discover if the recipient of a message has read it. Don’t expect a reply right away.
“I feel kind of forced if I read [a BlackBerry Message] to reply right away,” Beliveau said.
Are there ever any exceptions when it’s acceptable to read a but not respond?
“If you’re making plans and it’s time sensitive, I’d be irritated.
“If we’re just chatting its not such a big deal,” she said.
On Facebook friendships
Facebook has made it completely normal to stalk the profile of someone you never speak to, unless of course this person has unfriended you.
If Facebook is here to stay, don’t be offended if you’re taken off a few friend lists.
“I have so many people from high school that I haven’t talked to in years. There’s no need to have them on Facebook,” she said, adding that this could warrant a deleting spree.
—Jessica Fishbein We’re all guilty of allowing ourselves to be held hostage by smartphones, Facebook and Twitter. It’s a sad reality that social media and the ever-present devices of digital culture prevent us from real-life socializing. If we accept that we’re willing to be slaves to social media, then knowing the ground rules of etiquette in the digital forum seems necessary. It’s usually ignorance, not rudeness. But let’s play it safe and lay it all out on the table, shall we?
