Throughout the Internet, there are a number of opinions and references to main Netiquette rules. Most of these are quite rudimentary. This list that follows is from my book, which is mentioned below. There are also links to the book's overview. This looks looks more at the ethical basics rather than the standard feature lists. To really excel in Netiquette, this set of principles is a great starting point.
