Netiquette

"Netiquette" is the proper etiquette when interacting online.   Interactions online are both direct and indirect, since most items posted are permanent.  Knowing how to interact appropriately saves you embarrassment and keeps others from being offended by the content you post.

“Respect can do only good. It assumes that the other person's stature is as large as one's own, his rights as reasonable, his needs as important.” 
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."
“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams” 
 “Happiness is not a goal… it’s a by-product of a life well lived.”   – Eleanor Roosevelt, American First Lady

“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” – Maya Angelou, American Writer
