Addicted to blogging?

A post by Edward Mahoney led me to a post by Gia Lyons where she had shared the results of one of those Net quizzes. Here’s my result:

84%How Addicted to Blogging Are You?

Here are my answers:

  1. Where is your blog located? My own domain (for example: www.matts-awesome-blog.com)
  2. How often do you update your blog? Several times a week
  3. How many blogs do you read a day? More than 20. (Although it’s in my feedreader and I read headlines, so…)
  4. How much time do you spend reading blogs a day? Less than 30 minutes
  5. How many different blogs do you post entries on? 5 or more
  6. Have you ever live-blogged? Yes
  7. How do you stay up to date with all your favorite blogs? I subscribe to feeds via RSS, Atom, etc
  8. Have you ever blown off an important task, such as studying for an exam or making a deadline, because you were blogging? No
  9. If something interesting happens to you, do you immediately think about how you’re going to write about it on your blog? Yes
  10. What do you usually blog about? Anything and everything, including personal issues or something funny you saw at the park the other day
  11. What kind of blogging do you do? Both [work and personal].
  12. Have you ever tried to convince a friend or family member they should start a blog? Yes
  13. Have you ever come up with a great blog idea while doing something completely random, such as taking a shower or watching a movie? Yes
  14. When this quiz is over, do you plan on blogging about your blogging addiction? Yes

I’d say that these are signs of blogging being part of your way of life, not addiction. I don’t use blogging to escape important things I need to do, but rather to enhance what I’m already doing… =)
