ummmm...?

I 'googlenewsed' (yes, it's a verb) Twitter... because I got an account not too long ago and was curious what the media had to say about the phenomenon of tweets. I clicked on a link by a woman who is a writer, author and public speaker (and expert) on letter writing. Hmmm...she needs to edit. This is just one mistake:

What I love most about Twitter is its' simplicity and informal tone. What I like least, is how additive it can become.

additive (n.) A substance added in small amounts to something else to improve, strengthen, or otherwise alter it.

I don't think she is baking...so it should read 'addictive' instead.
