twitteritis

A term describing a not-so-rare messaging condition linked to the use of twitter, a micro blogging technology. The condition arises when one becomes diseased with sharing every aspect of what they are doing all the time, everywhere.
Twitteritis can be identified by overuse of twitter.com - when someone is brushing their hair - they rush to their browser to twitter that they are brushing their hair or to share that they are petting their cat, scooping ice cream...
