Provides very good general information for new-to-online students.  Also very kind of creator to grant permission to modify the content.  I can see many educators using this material as a jump start to their own orientation to online learning.

I am going to adopt this as a link within my own virtual guidelines document as I think that it runs the entire gamut of proper computer usage and "netiquette."

Technical Remarks:

I would put just a little more white space between bullet points to make it easier to read on the screen.
