What is “overshare”? You know.

Webster’s just picked it’s word of the year. Dan Pink told me.
It’s alot like the inter­jec­tion in con­ver­sa­tions “too much infor­ma­tion!” when you want some­one to stop divulging things that make you feel ter­ri­bly uncom­fort­able or queasy. How about some under­stand­ing of pri­vacy yours as well as mine.

defined:
over­share (verb): to divulge exces­sive per­sonal infor­ma­tion, as in a blog or broad­cast inter­view, prompt­ing reac­tions rang­ing from alarmed dis­com­fort to approval.
