Social Media Etiquette

To me, Social Media etiquette shouldn't be any different to etiquette when interacting with people offline. Sometimes I see many comments on the internet that just snowballs from a slip of the tongue (or fingers in this case) and becomes downright abusive.

My views on this:

Be Polite - Don't be Rude and show some courtesy
Don't upload inappropriate photos of others without permission
Consider the context you're in when posting/commenting - some things that are appropriate in your personal life may not be appropriate in your professional setting
