The article on page 287 just basically says act how you would with other people while not being on the internet and to basically be respectful.
7 netiquettes listed:
1. Behave as though you are communicating with a person.- type to someone as you would talk to them face to face. very good rule
2. Remember that your words are open to interpretation.- people could misenterpret something you type, word it carefully
3. Do not "shout" online.- typing in all caps gets annoying, annother good rule
4. Do not "flame" other users.- Flaming is basically to be criticized on the internet, it gets very annoying and this is a good rule
5. Do not send spam.- nothing is more annoying than spam
6. Do not distribute copyrighted material.- A very good rule, it is against the law anyways
7. Do not be a coward.- could be misinterpreted, it probably means that do not make a random screen name just to misbehave
Netiquette is important because if it is not followed, other people could get offended.
