9 warning signs of Twitterholicism

You might be a twitter-holic if:

  1. You hit the refresh button to see if it REALLY is updating every two minutes.

  2. You watch Twittervision and get depressed when it says no new twitters.
  3. You get angry when the twitter page won’t load as quickly as you want it to.
  4. When twitter goes down, you go back to your blog, but it’s just not the same.
  5. You start talking in short bursts of 140 characters or less.
  6. You have more friends on twitter than you’ve ever had in real life.
  7. You start tweeting about your dog or cat.
  8. You get an unusually large cell phone bill due to your constant tweeting.
  9. You’re reading this post because you read about it on twitter.
