Blogger Code of Conduct

For everyone managing a blog, here is a conversation worth watching- Tim O’Reilly (who reportedly coined the phrase 2.0) mentioned bloggers should have a code of conduct.   In the 2.0 spirit, Jimmy Wales from Wikipedia quickly started developing one.

The new online magazine, Social Computing is covering the evolution of the rules at: Jimmy Wales of Wikia on ‘The Blogger’s Code of Conduct’.   To be honest, its a common sense list, but the question in my mind is - is this the end of the ‘wild west mentality’ in some blogging where they acted above the rules of the more established media or will it be ignored?  What do you think?
