[speaker001:] not a single email until now? it's already twelve o'clock. I can't believe it!
[speaker002:] can't bear it, right? I've been there before. I'll feel comfortable if no one calls me or sends me text messages, like there is something missing.
[speaker001:] yeah, that's right. If no one sends me test messages, I'll go crazy.
[speaker002:] actually, this is a kind of addiction called " infomania " or " information overload ".
[speaker001:] addiction? checking emails and text messages often can be called an addiction? no way!
[speaker002:] yes, it is. Do you consider a frequent check of your income emails to be an integral part of your working day?
[speaker001:] absolutely.
[speaker002:] do you have your cell phone with you wherever you go and check text messages and phone calls from time to time?
[speaker001:] yeah, it's a must. Otherwise, I may miss important phone calls and text messages.
[speaker002:] do you open all your IM tools whenever you're using a computer?
[speaker001:] yes. MSN, QQ, Skype, Google Talk, Ali wangwang, everything, so that I'll be in touch with all friends and relatives.
[speaker002:] now I can tell you're definitely addicted to the overflow of information.
