Week one in ISM3004 has brought a few unexpected twists for this semester. I have always considered myself as computer literate, but I am quickly realizing that I am comparable to something close to a sloth, I get the job done just not very quickly.
The first subject of the course, which was netiquette what completely foreign to me. I had never heard of the term netiquette, in fact the blog spell checker hasn't. Netiquette is a term that describes exactly what it sounds like, etiquette for the net. It is the social skills that enable everyone to enjoy the internet and function in a "polite and civil manner."
I think that netiquette is important in a business environment because it really won't function any other way. You don't want your IT employees demeaning other employees through emails or vice-versa. Employing netiquette makes it possible to be even more efficient in a business environment.
There is a very en depth look into the world of netiquette thats available at http://www.albion.com/netiquette/corerules.html. I think it might be a little too en depth but maybe some of topics that seem more obvious to me don't to others.
