Description

An Eats, Shoots and Leaves for etiquette in the digital age by a leading tech and digital culture journalist from WIRED. How do you reply to your colleague's weird email What might Debrett's say about your Tinder profile And just how do you know if you're mansplaining In this irreverent journey through the murky world of digital etiquette, WIRED's Victoria Turk provides an indispensable guide to minding our manners in a brave new online world. The digital revolution has put us all within a few clicks, taps and swipes of each other. But familiarity can breed contempt, and whilst we're more likely than ever to fall in love online, we're also more likely to fall headfirst into a blazing row with a stranger. Google's unofficial motto is Don't Be Evil, but sometimes that's easier said than done. If you've ever encountered the surreal battlefields of digital life and wondered why we don't all just go analogue, this is the book for you.
