I think one of my key learnings in the 31 day challenge was to get that there are real people behind the blogs. I know, duh. But it's the part about being people who you can talk to, people who are touched by a simple response. I've had websites for years, and could see the stats with the 'visitors', but they were never real to me. Now that readers and writers are real, I see how much of the common courtesy I would extend to face to face needs to move into my electronic communication. So thanks for solidifying it. Like Sue, my mind moves very quickly, and I can jump ahead of where someone is easily. I also have to remember that just because I feel like I 'know' a person from reading their blog, they don't necessarily feel the same way about me! Alex,

I am apparently the worst offender at this. Forget to say hi - how are you. Just jump straight in with my questions (remember my mind runs really fast so I have already done all this before I typed my questions). Then I just wonder off and forget to say goodbye - apparently. Also a bad offender of etiquette at twitter. Sue Can we also add Instant messaging etiquette?
