Leaving a cellphone on charge harmful?

[W. eWatson]

Will it be harmful to the cellphone battery if i Leave it plugged in all
the time? I'm trying to use it more, by thinking of it as just another
land line phone.

Generally this is safe.
There is little danger of overcharge as the phone regulates the charge
cycle, and the battery itself has a built-in protection circuit to protect
against overcharge.
