Blog Addiction

I found this interesting/sad read on blog addiction: http://middlewesterner.typepad.com/middlewesterner/2005/02/the_blogging_ad_1.html

This pathetic disease has seemed to have claimed ordinary people out of their otherwise fascinating lives...or so they'd like to think. The apparent blog addict would rather blog than spend time with one's family, participate in social activities and even sleep. Can you believe that they even compare blogging to rank up next to the pleasure of recreational SEX??? No no no...I don't buy it for one second!!! It's not that these people have soooo poorly succumb to the black hole that is the Internet...it's that they had nothing (or no one) better to do in the first place.

Skip right past those supposed 3-steps to recovery, turn your PC off and find a REAL HOBBY!

I heard about this too. Sadly there are people having nothing better to do. We had an IS news presentation on "computer shut down day" last semester talking about how people start finding lives without computer. You may dig into it later...
