Thanks for the negotiation book references, these look along the lines of what I want to know. I think I should edit the post to add more context... right now

  :-) I will add that, in my experience, communicating on the web can be useful for honing your communication skills because you get quick feedback on whether or not you really said what you were trying to say. You don't tend to get this in face-to-face settings, where we rely a lot more on context, facial expression, voice tone, and body language. A lot of people comment that I write well. (And my sister, a journalism major who used to edit my school papers, eventually began turning to me for editing suggestions.) I learned it in online forums. Good communication skills are fairly uncommon and quite valuable for getting things done.
