Proper Emailing
The proper way to email. Since you can not see the person who you are emailing face to face it is necessary to know correct emotions as well as acronyms. Acronyms also work well when you are in a hurry. For example you could put "ttyl" instead of having to type out talk to you later. It saves time. You should also take in consideration that not everyone has a computer as fast as yours. Therefore it would be polite to as if you can send them something. Email is also used as evidence in a courtroom nowadays so think twice before you send it because it could be used against you.
10 Commandments
The 10 commandments of emailing. The first one was attachments. You should not send those because not everyone has compatible formats. The second one was to erase everything you don't need, and you can also ignore an email like a phone call. The following one was to never send an email while you are mad. You should take a break and if you are still mad when you come back then send it. The forth was to never send an email in place of seeing the person face to face. "Do unto others" and "Rumor, Gossip, and Hearsay are basically the same commandment. You shouldn't send abusive comments to anyone because you you wouldn't want them sent about you. Don't be an extra link in the chain when chain letters are sent was the next commandment. Another one was keep your address book up to date because you never know when someone we re-enter your digital life. Then the final two commandments were saying that there is a hierarchy in communication and no one is perfect when it comes to writing their email. The hierarchy goes face to face, phone calls, voice mail then email.

Cell Phone Usage
When necessary. I think that is when it's alright to use your cell phone. I also think it's ok when you are posting a blog like this one. As long as you have a resonable explination for for use of your phone then it's ok. I don't think there is a better policy out there then that. One time I don't recomend you use your cell phone is while you are in the pool. Not a good idea. Another really bad time is at a funeral. You should be paying absolute respect.
