    1. We must therefore promote an ecology of communication. On the level of public policy, this entails establishing norms so that the decision-making behind content selection and its development becomes more transparent and protects personal data. Regarding social and cultural aspects, this requires a strengthening of intermediary organizations, serious journalism and forums for debate, where reasoned argumentation and verification carry greater weight than immediate reaction. For families and schools, there is a growing need for new educational awareness and for formation concerning the proper and critical use of digital tools, AI and online commercial and financial platforms. In universities, the principal challenge lies in the integration of knowledge, cultivating both the capacity to connect and synthesize knowledge in order to grasp complexity, and the skills necessary to verify facts.

    1. Netiquette describes the rules of acceptable ways of communicating online. Just as there is etiquette in person (not standing too close, speaking too loudly, or interrupting), there are rules for polite behavior in an online setting. Be respectful. There are real people with real feelings reading your comments.  Use your online nonverbal communication carefully. Be aware of too many emojis, all caps, or exclamation points – for some, this feels as though you are yelling.Be careful with humor or sarcasm as it may not translate online.  Consider the impression you are making with every post. Who are you online? Remember, grammar and spelling matter.  Don’t post inappropriate material.  Don’t post something that is too long. Respect other people’s time.Keep disagreement healthy. Some conversations are better in person. You can agree to disagree.  Respect your own privacy. Don’t post anything too personal.  When in doubt, stick to rules of conduct you follow in real life.Enjoy the experience of connecting with people all over the world. It’s an opportunity and blessing—as long as you use it this way.

    1. Scholars have experienced information overload for more than a century [Vickery, 1999] and the problem is just getting worse. Online access provides much better knowledge discovery and aggregation tools, but these tools struggle with the fragmentation of research communication caused by the rapid proliferation of increasingly specialized and overlapping journals, some with decreasing quality of reviewing [Schultz, 2011].
