Identity crash - sudden and catastrophic collapse of an individual's ability to keep all the threads of his or her online identity straight when the individual joins one too many social networks.
Example: I was ok keeping up with Facebook, Flickr, and Myspace, but after throwing lawlink, Last.fm, and Orkut into the mix, I had a total identity crash and forgot what went where.
I have Lj, Blogger, Flickr, Last.Fm, Odnoklassniki, vkontakte (a Russian clone of Facebook), digg and a lot of less important accounts, but I've never had a identity crash. Haven't yet.
