  • Stay on topic.
  • Contribute new information to the discussion.
  • Don't comment for the sake of commenting.
  • Know when to comment and when to e-mail.
  • "Oh yeah, that link is cool. By the way, how's your sister?"
  • Remember that nobody likes a know-it-all.
  • Make the tone of your message clear.
  • Use emoticons or additional information to communicate the spirit of your message.
  • Build your identity and own your words by placing your name and weblog address on your comments wherever possible.
  • Be succinct.
  • Stay short and to the point. Everyone appreciates brevity.
  • Cite your sources with links or inline quoting.
  • To comment on specific bits of a blog post, copy and paste the lines in question and add your response below each section
  • Be courteous.
  • personal attacks are unacceptable, useless and can quickly degrade a discussion
  • Don't post when you're angry, upset, drunk or emotional.
  • If you find yourself angrily typing a message into someone's blog comment box - STOP. Get up. Take a breath. Walk around. Give it a day
  • Do not feed or tease the trolls.
