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 :(

wikicreeping 

When you discover an actor/artist and quickly go on wikipedia to wikicreep on them, learning about their childhood, their parents, grandparents, siblings, dog that died at age 14, first kiss, favorite color, size of shoe, how their best friend's uncle got them a job at the restaurant where a modeling agent discovered them...

At the end you feel like you know way too much and not enough about this complete stranger who has no idea who you are and that you now know about the time they got pants'd at that party in high school.

Person1: What're you doing?
