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...

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
