Can Your Shutdown for a Day?
Here is a question. Would you be able to shutdown you computer for a day? That means no blogging, emails, surfing or even reading this blog. AHH!
The concept is nearly to much to comprehend yet on the 24 March its Shutdown Day. This is a very exciting experiment that will highlight our reliance (and addiction) on computers.
Im still not sure if I am going to be able to take part due to the imminent launch of Rand8.

Considering that 100% of my income is online, shutting down the computer for a day means losing a day’s pay (or more). So, no, I can’t do it.
It would be more interesting to see if this could occur during a week day rather than a weekend.
If the weather is nice, then I can do it. Other than that, I know I am dependent on my computer.
This is the first I heard of this. I probably could considering I do all of my blogging late night early morning anyway. So I could blog late Friday and then early Sunday. Or is that cheating?
Considering I do medical transcription online, nope cuz I’m slated to work that day
Could I do it? Yes, but I won’t. These kind of events are stupid, IMHO.
