Think Before Clicking Send

Email Etiquette
On June 30, 2011 in his N.Y. Times column, David Pogue described the deluge of emails each of us receives. It's a plague inflicted upon us by our friends. To help solve the problem he refereced ten suggestions by Chris Anderson of ted.com in an Email Charter of things we can do to improve the situation. Pogue added his own 5 items and I added one more for a total of sixteen, as you can see below.
1. Respect Recipients' Time
2. Short or Slow is not Rude
3. Celebrate Clarity
4. Quash Open-Ended Questions
5. Slash Surplus cc's
6. Tighten the Thread
7. Attack Attachments
8. Give these Gifts: EOM NNTR
9. Cut Contentless Responses
10. Disconnect!
11. Don't Use Mailbocks
12. Use BCC for Your E-mail Blasts
13. Clean Up Your Forwards
14. Omit the Legal Vomit
15. Intersperse Your Replies
16. If an email suggests that you forward it to all your friends ... DON'T!
17. Be Judicious in What You Send.
