Digital Citizenship

Yikes!  It looks like I've fallen behind in my blogs.  Last week we covered the topic of digital citizenship.  I think so far I've been pretty lucky in my online forum.  Perhaps it is because we are all avid book readers and try to use responsible behavior online?  I noted that people use pretty good manners and I appreciate how there are certain rules such as not giving away spoilers or warning someone if you have spoilers so they can be hidden.  I find it interesting how even though most of the people who participate in the forum are "young adults, " they all seem to be aware of the general expectations and guidelines of digital citizenship.  While some of the participants don't add a whole lot to the discussion, they typically aren't rude or offensive. They just say things like, "OMG, this was the best book EVER!"  If you can get past that, then I guess anything else is tolerable.  :)
