identity crash

A sudden and catastrophic collapse of an individual's ability to keep all the profiles of his or her online identity straight when the individual joins one too many social networks. For 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."
