A few days ago a friend asked me if there was a blogging etiquette. I stumbled on my answer. I don’t think I had given it enough thought to produce a coherent response (which is clearly a sign that I’m inept at thinking on my toes or really producing any impromptu information that could make me sound well informed! I made a mental note to work on this quality).

I think what you described is the blogging etiquette - having mutual respect because we all recognize what an effort it is. We quietly recognize ourselves in each other.

Rebecca: This: "We quietly recognize ourselves in each other" was beautifully said. I think that's what creates a real community -- the ability to relate to, support, and encourage one another, as well as the chance to challenge opinions and thought respectfully.
Marina: I think you articulated perfectly the links that connect bloggers, with the main rule of thumb for etiquette, as Rebecca says above, being respect for each other and the effort we put into sharing those those thoughts/ideas/opinions.
Thanks for the post!

I think the general rule for me is just to behave the way you would in real life. When you're in the virtual world you don't have to worry about getting beat up of anything like that, and lots of people take advantage of it and it's very annoying.
But behave as you would at a gathering of people at BBQ or something, and that should be fine.

Hi Marina-
Great post, thank you for sharing.
I'm not sure if this classifies as "etiquette", but I think we--as bloggers--have a commitment to working hard at what we do, or at least strive to put out interesting, creative, thoughtful material. In the same vein, I'm disappointed, in myself and in others, I suppose, when a blog goes "stale."
All the best-
