You know you have update fever when........

recently called 'googlenoia'

[stuntdubl]

-you look at the moon and think......it's coming.

-the only thing you search yahoo for is backlinks.

-you just glance at webmaster world ten times a day for an extremely long thread.

-you know who darrin ward is.

-you have to up your dosage of prozac at the end of the month.

-you make stupid puns about dancing

-you have made any posts about a "big red button"

-you know how many datacenters google has

-you have "spidey sense" for everflux

-you have posted a "premature egooglation" thread (claiming the update has started when it really hasn't)

-you have spent any time asking, reading, or speculating on when the "it" would begin

-you have studied and constantly reference the full moon chart and dates that the update began.

Anyone care to fill in any that I missed?

I was bored.:)

Marketing_Guy, you've got the routine down pretty well! Speaking of which...

Guess it's about time to get on the couch for a nap so we're all rested up when the update does begin.

Added:

not telling anyone about my mother......

Hey, never mind the nap. Maybe I better go Google myself and make sure my daughter's not telling anyone about me. I wouldn't want word to get out about the obsessive update behavior every time.

Hi. My name's Scott and I've been addicted to the update for 9 months now.

It all started one day when I was introduced to Webmaster World and it's beginning to take over my life.

Hi Scott,

My name is Mike, and although I know that I should just make my webpages as best I can and not worry about Google or the Dance, I just can't help checking the keywords and freshtags of the sites I work on...continuously.. and Dance time... oooohh baby.

What a drug Google has become! (seen any dance around? I need some dance, or at least a little PR to tide me over until the next trip, I mean dance. YOU'VE GOT EVRFLUX! shhhh, sorry, can I have some? )

[dubilbul]

- you are checking the linksback to the sites that are linking back to the sites that are linking back to the sites that are linking back to the sites that are linking back to your site ... (I can't remember what site it was)

Do you think i could get the health service to fund a trip to pub con?

I could put a good arguement forward for the case....

Scott :)

[stuntdubl]

PubCon = Methadone for Google-aholics?

Although I suppose it could be seen as 100% pure uncut google also, which would only seduce the dopamine neurotransmitters that enhance this debilitating disease.

I wonder if they make a patch or gum for this....

...when the only conferences that you are excited about attending have both Google and alcohol as participants.....

[Munster]

I noticed last night that a couple more of my pages have been added....... the Googlies are coming!

sometimes the only exercise some of us get is THE DANCE...

GoogleGuy sometimes says, (paraphrasing totally), "turn off the computer, forget about it, and get some fresh air".

Google will dance. It's spring, (in the northern hemisphere...), and if you've been working on your content and links you can mostly forget about it all 'cause you'll probably do well.

> Google will dance.

Yeah, but when?
