 Are you an internet addict ?

Symptoms :

1)You see a pic of a model on a website and think "I used to have that slim look once." sigh.

2)You check your e-mail accounts more than the number of times you blink in a single day.

3)You search for the mouse at the dinner table to drag and drop the eatables on to your plate.

4)You lose patience filling the jar with water because you think that the download is too slow.

5)You go to buy veggies, and ask the shopkeeper, "how much does 1MB cost" ?

6)You try to click on ads with the remote while watching TV.

7)You meet an old friend, he asks, "where do you live?", and you give your website address.

8)You go out, look at nature, and exclaim.. "wow very realistic!"

9)You decide to name your child  "cooldude567_weirdo12_bvndsfkjsl0"

10)When you meet someone you ask their name, and next ask for password.

If you have at least 5 of these symptoms then you're in great danger of becoming a fictitious character in the real world.

Seriously, internet addiction can be dangerous, it hampers your health, makes you isolated, sometimes even cause break ups(with the real partner not the one in the virtual world  )
It's better if you follow a strict schedule. You can easily get lost on the internet as you find a whole load of information. You click on one link and then click on another link, and the clicking goes on. You lose track of the time spent, and most of the time you don't even get the desired information. It's better to have a favourites list--websites you deem the best to know about your interests--at least that way you won't have to keep searching, clicking, reading, and wasting time. Physical exercise is vital. See to that you exercise at least twice a week. Get good sleep! Sleep deprivation has many harmful effects. Sleep is important for the formation of memory so no matter how much information you read on the net you need to give enough time for it to seep into your brain. Socialize more in the real world!

This is a very good site to know your level of addiction :

If nothing works then the last resort would be..












You can see in which direction we are heading..

aapki ada kardeti hain hamain fida
aapki muskaan lati hain kushi
jaise khula aasmaan
lekin..
Ye aapki ek line ki smiley hain,
ek badi paheli.
