So a very funny post by “The Tutor” of GoogleTutor.com really go me thinking about how addicting Search Engine Optimization can be and especially how addicting Google can be.

The post “63 signs you’re addicted to Google and the Church of Search” has signs that will either make you laugh or make you wish you never read them (reminding you that you are a loser). Here are some of my favorites:

• You have a Tivo wish list keyword search for “Google”
• You know what Matt Cutts dressed as for Halloween last year
• You know the last name of Matt, Eric, Sergey, Larry, Marissa, and Vanessa off the top of your head
• You think having Vanessa in that last item is stupid because everyone knows she left Google a while back
• You have more than 10 SEO/SEM blogs in your feed reader
• You’ve lost sleep over Toolbar PR
• You’ve said ‘just Google it‘ (grr…)
• You use Google as spell check
• You use Google to do math
• You know the full name of the person Matt Cutts spoke out to help in a court case
• You check the Google holiday logo, every holiday
• You use Google 411 instead of 411
• You know that there is more than one type of PageRank

Remember there are 63 signs at the original post. If you can answer any of these questions above, don’t worry you will be alright
