You know you’re too Web2.0 when;
- You’re painting your home, and ask the hardware store for gradient paint
- You wonder why the clouds in the sky don’t have tags
- You call young families ‘start ups’
- You ask people their del.icio.us usernames instead of their real names at parties
- You don’t call them parties, they’re called social mashups
- You wonder why the microwave button doesn’t say SUBMIT
- You start signing your name like fu.lln.ame
- You paint your car lime green or light blue
- You consider opening a bar called ‘Social Network’
- You buy two goldfish and name them Yahoo! and Google
- You write love letters in 24 point Tahoma
- You have more usernames than friends
- ‘syndicate user-contributed web services’ starts to actually mean something
- You play scrabble, and just add R’s to the ends of other players words
- You tattoo your Flickr username on yourself
- You wonder how you even survived back in Web1.0
- You wonder why newspapers don’t have rounded corners
- You catch yourself explaining ‘folksonomies’ to your grandparents
- You find this list untrue and offensive
- You can’t catch a train without making a Rails joke
- You like your credit card for the fact it has rounded corners
- You ask staff at your local clothing store if they have any t shirts in #C4F400
- You look for the RSS button on your TV remote
- You find this list funny
