For some, the social networking site Twitter could be addictive, while for others it could be downright deadly.
A teenage girl was electrocuted after police say she accidentally dropped her laptop into a drawn bath she was sitting in.
Police believe Maria Barbu, 17, was attempting to plug in her laptop
with wet hands after the battery died during an intense session on
Twitter. The teen clearly used bad judgement when she decided to
"tweet" on her laptop and bathe at the same time, police said.
Further details on the death are unknown.
Barbu's body was reportedly found by her parents with the smoking laptop lying right next to her.

| Very sad, but I gotta say I'm not terribly surprised either.
