Blogging Code of Ethics

Wednesday, November 10, 2004 2:19:39 PM

While this is oriented toward corporate blogging, it is nevertheless worth consideration by all bloggers:

1. I will tell the truth.
2. I will write deliberately and with accuracy.
3. I will acknowledge and correct mistakes promptly.
4. I will preserve the original post, using notations to show where I have made changes so as to maintain the integrity of my publishing.
5. I will never delete a post.
6. I will not delete comments unless they are spam or off-topic.
7. I will reply to emails and comments when appropriate, and do so promptly.
8. I will strive for high quality with every post - including basic spellchecking.
9. I will stay on topic.
10. I will disagree with other opinions respectfully.
11. I will link to online references and original source materials directly.
12. I will disclose conflicts of interest.
13. I will keep private issues and topics private, since discussing private issues would jeopardize my personal and work relationships.

Great Blog, Roy. I read a few others as well and almost totally agree with your most recent. I do like the code of ethics, I feel that everything should have some sort of ethics behind it as it seems that we, as a society, are losing our ethics daily. Sort of off topic of that, my family is from WV and I am also work in IT.

Keep in touch,

Larry

  • The Angelic Devil: Baalam (Part 1 of 3)

    In the book of Numbers there is a strange story involving the children of Israel and a prophet named Balaam.

  • Iconoclast of Inconsistency

    It is the task of marketing departments of all varieties to keep a calculating finger on the pulse of culture, particularly when it comes to consumer trends. The entertainment industry alone has a multi-billion dollar reason to keep their fingers close--which means their research into the enter ...

  • Graceful Disturbance

    In a letter dated September 6, 1955, Flannery O’Connor confessed that though the truth “does not change according to our ability to stomach it,” there are periods in the lives of us all, even of the saints, “when the truth as revealed by faith is hideous, emotionally dist ...

  • The Last Enemy

    In spite of the proverbial certainty of death and taxes, the human psyche has always dreamed of discovering loopholes in whatever mechanisms fix the limits. Yet though it might be possible to cheat on one’s taxes, “cheating death” remains a phrase of wishful-thinking applied t ...

  • Christ Is Risen

    Most of us will miss it. Couched between Wednesday’s building crescendo of assignments and Friday’s promise of their demise, Thursday hardly seems more than a means to an end. So even though this Thursday is every bit as holy as Easter Sunday, most of the world will miss it--even t ...

  • The Least of These

    Not long ago, as I was doing research for a paper I had to write, I stumbled upon some statistical data that greatly disturbed me. Researchers estimate that every day 16,000 to 24,000 children die from hunger related causes. In 2004, for example, almost one billion people lived below the inter ...
