How Addicted Are You to Social Media?

by Ari Herzog on December 1, 2008 · 7 comments

Piggybacking Liz Strauss who shares she is 46% addicted to social media, I decided to take the same 14-question quiz.

My result from internet marketing firm Search & Social:

socialmedia addiction

Go figure. What’s your score?

Hilarious! I just found you on twitter today and came over to check out your blog. I saw this and nearly freaked…I have spent the entire day thinking I need to slow down with social media. I am just getting started in the blogging world and look for tips constantly.

Of course, when I saw this I had to see what my score was. Can you guess? 46%

I think mine was 57%, much lower than I expected. I guess I know how to use it and I am not a kid. I don’t spend all day on FB or Myspace.

I daren’t take the test Ari, it’s going to be embarrassing if I score too high and embarrassing if I score too low. If I’m stuck as Mr Average…even worse.

I got 89%

I got 57%. That seems healthy enough. David, I know I’m friends with you on several networks, but 89%? Do you not sleep?
