March 24 could be a challenge for those who want to partake in Shutdown Day. What is Shutdown Day? Are they going to shutdown Grandma’s life support? No, no worries. But the challange you must face, might ultimately be harder than losing a loved one. That’s right. We’re talking about not going on the computer….for a complete 24 hours.
The internet has become such an integral part of everyday life that it is clearly more of an addiction then a common hobby. With your MySpace’s and your YouTube’s, the computer has become a drug. Though it happens to be a drug that we adore. On March 24, we’ll be here like every other day, reporting the news to blank monitors and computer addicts (us included) through the world. — Andrew Dobrow
