About the Project

Good Internet Manners is an exploration of etiquette in our digital age. This project exists to create and curate resources for parents, companies, and schools.  

The project was birthed after a conversation between Eric Brown and longtime friend, Taylor Jones, about the state of the Internet and how people treat one another online.
