25 Signs You Might have a Problem Blogging
Inspired by BittBox’s fantastic post, I decided to write my own post about my blogging problem. Here are my 25 signs that you might have a problem blogging.
- Your closest friends know the easiest way to communicate with you is by submitting a comment.
- You re-organize your living room to have better access to a computer.
- In order to answer some questions, you sometimes have to search your own blog.
- You write posts to your family instead of speaking to them.
- You pay your DSL or Cable bill before your rent or mortgage.
- You don’t know your anniversary but you know your Technorati rank.
- Vacuuming your keyboard would provide forensic researchers with what you had for dinner for the last six months.
- When you can not figure out how to modify your theme, you write your own WordPress Plugin.
- You found out Anna Nicole Smith died online.
- You were relieved by the WordPress 2.1 autosave feature because you could finally take bathroom breaks while posting.
- You host blogs for friends, family, and colleagues.
- You buy domain names for presents.
- You have a lot of friends that you’ve never actually met nor talked to in real life.
- You understand acronyms like IMHO
- You ask for a Herman Miller Aeron for your birthday.
- You find yourself wanting an iPhone even though you’ve never owned a Mac in your life.
- When asked what you want for dinner, you recommend a restaurant in Vancouver from John Chow – but you live in Indiana.
- Any blog without comments sucks… except for Seth’s Blog.
- You know Ze is funny, Hugh draws great comics on business cards, and Mark was really, really lucky with his first business.
- You know that any comment from a site ending in “info” is blog spam.
- You look forward to a new theme more than moving into your new home.
- You have trouble sleeping without posting.
- You only stay at hotels with broadband or with a Starbucks within 3 blocks.
- You identify yourself as a blogger rather than the actual profession that you make a living on.
- Ordering dinner involves ctrl-t and logging in to Papa John’s.
