Confession from a twitter addict

July 30 1 Comment Category: Social Networking

There was a time when i used to just read the tweets from other people and see what they actually where doing on twitter, and why do they keep sharing things and updates with others online? But right now, i am doing the same! And not in a small way, but totally involving myself for almost the whole day on twitter.

I chat with friends i made there, and read tech news, share them with others, read and retweet others tweets, and keep making new friends! And twitter has become the first thing i got addicted to in my life. And believe me, its harder to come over this addiction than alcohol or drugs! You feel lonely when not tweeting or reading other’s tweets.

I have never tweeted so much in any month since i joined, that i did only during July 2009. This would be the month i won’t forget as I wrote my exams, and prepared for them along with tweeting all the time.

I am doing nothing intentionally to gain followers, or to rank myself better etc. but the conversations I am into, the whole day, keeps me busy on twitter and I almost forget that there are a few blogs where i have to post regularly, and keep them updated.
And my mind has got involved into twitter so much that I have written most of the latest stuff in my blog that’s related to twitter itself. I feel i became a pro and i started sharing tips on my blog, on how to use twitter in a better way.

Only in this month, till now i have tweeted nearly 3600 tweets, averaging 115 tweets a day! That might not be a big number for many, but for me i feel addicted totally. Please don’t frown on me, if i am tweeting more than normal and flooding your timeline, but that’s what an addict does, and its hard to reduce that.

I still have to give my practical exams from 3rd August but Twitter doesn’t let me study properly! I have the book in front of me, but above that is my mobile through which i keep tweeting.
And i usually don’t write posts totally mentioning myself in it, but i did it in this post, all due to the practice of tweeting all the time. Twitter also has everything what i do, what i am eating, where I am going, which movie am watching, what am reading etc. so the same mood while writing this!

Hope i get rid of this twitter addiction soon(Though won’t stop anytime totally)! And get back to my lovely blogging world where i learn many new things.

And just as it doesn’t take any time more than seconds to tweet, it took no more than 5 minutes to write all this stuff directly from my heart.
If at all i get suspended on twitter again(intentionally or unintentionally), I don’t know what i would be doing next!
