The Times on techetiquette

By Peter Rojas

William Norwich, the New York Times' Style and Entertaining editor, answers some reader questions about etiquette and entertaining, and towards the end is asked by one person if it's rude for a guest to ask to use a host's computer to check email or surf the web or play games. We usually have a spare laptop lying around the house for houseguests can use, but Norwich recommends shaming them with this technosnobbish rejoinder: "Have you lost your Blackberry?"
