Or, Alert Crazy, as the case may be.

Coming late to the party, we finally activated text-messaging on the cell phones.  (My wife was against it, somewhat irrationally…)  With my oldest son getting his cell for Christmas, his persistence pushed it through.  We also activated internet – super sweet.

At any rate, my addiction over the last couple of weeks has been automated updates.  I started with Sports and weather.  Then, I finally figured out how to get Twitter to work with it.  Today, I added stock quotes.  Not that I’m a major investor or anything; I added the mutual funds that make up my deferred comp – of which I barely “own” a couple of dozen shares….

So, do I have a problem?  Is this just a substitute because I don’t text much w/ real people?

Alternatively, what am I missing out there that might be fun or useful?
