    The deaths were not directly related to blogging. Some people died from a heart attack which is common at their ages.

    You will die from any form of exhaustion, not just blogging, anything in excess is harmful. Saying that, I guess I better logoff to get a rest away from DP. I wont want to appear on the next edition of nytimes.......

    Yeah we know staying on the PC for many hours is unhealthy. However its perfectly fine if its complimented with healthy eating and regular exercise.

    Any thing in excess is really bad. Continuous viewing of the monitor will definitely affect the eyes and staying stationary with out any body movement (except hand movements) for hours together will affect the general health. Take some time off in between to keep the doctor away...

    well if they are indeed staying infront of computer 24/7 or having sleep disorders, then it is another story but that is only for smaller populaton (i mean waaay smaller). That type of non-stop blogging can cause harm to health but other type of addicted to blogging wont imo.

    either way, I got my ticket as well, i'm # something in wait list :p

    Well, the people who are obsessed with the Internet are less likely to eat well and deprive themselves of sleep night after night, which eventually will have repurcussions, if not in the short run. Who knows, they may eventully have something along the lines of a coroner describing the death a result of excess blogging. :D

    "Who knows, they may eventully have something along the lines of a coroner describing the death a result of excess blogging."

    I like that, it made me giggle like a little schoolgirl lol

    Anyhow back to the point, it has already been highlighted in this thread that anything in excess is bad for you.
