Wiki spree

When you go to Wikipedia for some reason, end up clicking one link, then another, then another, until hours has passed and you have no idea what you first came to read about. This realization is usually followed by futile attempts to retrace the steps in your mind.

I just went on a mad Wiki spree! I was on Wikipedia to read about the Seychelles, then an hour later I found myself reading about the history of erotic depictions, PDA, and the demographics of China! I have no idea how I got there :(

WikiSpree

The act of spending far more time browsing Wikipedia that one otherwise would; usually caused by general interest in one item, only to have spent hours clicking on related links in an urge to know everything.

Johnny was late to class because he went on a WikiSpree about the connection behind Seagram's Distillery and Polydor Records, which caused him to forgo sleep.

"Dude, you look totally exhausted. What'd you get up to last night?
"Well, I went on a WikiSpree to look up Husky dogs, but ended up clicking on every link related to dogs in general!"
