If it weren’t for the originating source of the suggestion, I might easily dismiss a recent call for standardized blogging etiquette as something for those who don’t get the whole self-organization dynamic. Unfortunately, the first draft was written by a group of Internet gurus that include Tim O’Reilly and Jimmy Wales. Yiiikes.
There is a wiki to discuss and shape the guidelines. There are badges available to distinguish between civil sites (”Civility Enforced”) and those without the strict standards (”Anything goes”). Anyone having flashbacks to Tipper Gore?

I noticed a lack of “Civility Enforced” badges on your blog. How can I trust you now?
Badges? We don’t need no stinkin’ badges.
When we do, we’ll make our own.
