Wikomnia 

(n.) A mental disorder similar to insomnia. Wikomnia causes the victim to forgo the prudent option of sleep in lieu of endlessly browsing Wikipedia articles well into the night/morning. Patients who suffer from Wikomnia frequently show signs of always knowing a random factual tidbit of information to fit into every conversation regardless of the topic and waking up at dinner time without having completed any useful work the night before.
