    Although we do not utilize social networks for entertainment purposes only, we certainly are frequent users of Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, and Pinterest.  It is more accurate to say we are addicted to SEO and RWD as they have become a way of life for us.

      A working tool! Same for me, I use facebook to share my work and for adds. Can't stand twitter though. The other you mention don't have that much importance in my work. wink Thank you for the answer!

    I guess we all are addicted to one or another social network. My online "addiction" is obviously facebook, because I can communicate with my friends smile

      big_smile You're the first person who tells me this. I think I sort of admire you for that, because, like me, everyone else is addicted to it and it may pass a while until this whole addiction  goes away..

      I use it for my work and for contests and sales... I use all internet to work, if not I guess I wouldn't use it at all.. when I did mistery shopper visits it was also a tool to send info for my employers.
      Some of my friends are also fed up with it 2

    I'm suffering from withdraw symptoms after weaning myself off Pinterest, Foursquare, and Google+. I only stick with LinkedIn now but more for networking ;-)

      what is the appeal of foursquare? I saw post on it before but not familiar with it

      Not sure, for me it was truly like a drug as I was competing with my friends on FourSquare to see who can "check-in" the most and from the most unique places. I'm glad I got over that ;-)

      I don't find google+ appealing. My just sits there and nothing happens at all.

    Yes- Hubpages and Facebook. Well I'm not exactly addicted-like it's not that I can't live without them even for one day but when I do come on-line time flies by and I don't even realize it's so late. I am also am getting addicted to Google+.

    No but I admit that social media are so addictive, however we must see to it that not all of our time are allotted to it and do other things that are productive. To know more about addiction rehab, visit us at http://addiction-rehab-treatment.net/su … ounselor/.
