Tech Etiquette

This article is about rules of etiquette in the brave new technological world. Examples:

You can’t quit a social network just because your mom joins.

Early Apple Watch owners.....don’t act like you’re better than the rest of us because you can order pizza by talking into your wrist.

All smartwatch owners: No messaging during dinner and pretending you’re just scratching your wrist. Wrists aren’t that itchy.

An insightful quote at the end, IMHO, takes the prize:

When my friends and I go out to dinner, we’ll sometimes go ‘phones down’ as soon as we’re seated. Whoever accidentally picks up the phone first has to pay the tab for everyone. It is really effective at getting people off their phones. — Andy Dunn, CEO of the online men’s fashion retailer Bonobos
