What are Twitter Ethics? How about Twitter Etiquette?

It is easy to see that there are ares for improvement on Twitter behavior, but how do we define it and agree on it and abide by it? It does not seem like there is a one-size-fits-all approach, and, as many on the chat agreed, it is somewhat subjective.

So, the acceptable twitter behavior for me is when you try hard to make those relationships instead of plain promotional. #b2ctweet

What are your pet peeves on Twitter behavior?

We all have them. Pet Peeves. Yes, even on Twitter.

A3 As with #Facebook, even if the change is undesirable, it doesn't do any good to overly obsess. We don't own #Twitter or FB #b2ctweet

How can we improve Twitter Etiquette?

Are there ways that we can help improve behavior on Twitter? Should we even bother trying?

A4 We can only improve OUR OWN Twitter Etiquette - not others #b2ctweet
— Gail Gardner (@GrowMap) September 26, 2012

A4 Set a good example and encourage people (tips, articles, videos, etc.) #b2ctweet
