How to Defeat a Twitter Addiction

[MindMover]

In the entertaining world of social networking, the need to be online constantly, or to check updates frequently, can creep up on you unawares. An addiction is a term used when a person is "compulsively or physiologically dependent" on something. In the case of an addiction to Twitter, it can mean that you don't feel able to go a day without writing tweets and following others' tweets, and you feel deprived, unhappy, and perhaps even out of the loop of what's happening when you're away from Twitter.

If you find Twitter has started to fill up too many hours of your day and you'd like to stand back and put this social networking tool in its place again, here are some suggestions for unraveling your Twitter addiction.

1. Personally, I don't tweet.

Nor do I text message. I do have a cell phone, and if you want to reach me on it you have to plan on actually talking to me. How weird is that?
