We have progressed to a state where we find life very difficult without computers, maybe even impossible. As such, have you EVER thought what would happen to you if they (the computers) disappeared for just one day? Do you think you would be able to cope? Shutdown your computer this Saturday and find out!
Be a part of one of the biggest global experiments ever to take place on the internet (I can’t verify this, but what harm will it do?). The idea behind the experiment is to find out how many people can go without a computer for one whole day, and what will happen if we all participate!
Psst.. I’m not sure whether I can stay away from the PC for a-whole-freaking-day, but I’ll try. Plus, there’s a lot to do at home - clean the room (what’s new?!), the laundry, wash the car, read the (REAL) newspapers, read a book (which reminds me that I’m halfway reading 1421 now)..
Psst.. Psst.. You may want to read this “7 things to prepare for Shutdown Day” — it’s very funny 
If you think this post might benefit other bloggers:
!!!!!!!!!!!!! ohmigod..can i not participate? hahahha impossible la ;D
pelf: Can wan, don’t worry, hahahha
Thank goodness I would be away from home on the 24th….but does checking gmail via mobile phone count
pelf: Err.. You won’t switch on your PC, right? Only the mobile, right? Hahhaa
This just shows how hooked we all are 
:x dunno wor…lately my computer acting like a jealous boyfriend… Maybe I’ll take that challenge XD I think I can, I think I can, I know I can, I know I can -continues to chant…
pelf: Hhaha! Yes, chanting will do you good! Muahhaha
Wow…I don’t know if I can. I’ve been getting better about being away and letting my husband game on the computer and things like that instead of hoarding it…but a WHOLE day?
I think I’m going to need the patch…or I’d wind up signing up for all the stuff I’ve been not signing up for on my mobile phone…so that I can stay in touch, but that’s cheating, isn’t it?
pelf: I don’t know if that’s cheating — but I guess as long as you don’t switch on your PC that should be OK (??)
no PC i die wor! everyday i need my PC, email lah, blogging lah, download movies lah, pirating dvd lah, surfing porn lah..oops! scrap the last one, hehehehe..
pelf:
But you can still watch porn on your TV, no?Try send postcards la! I can give you my address in a while, hehheNo pc? Means I don’t have to work anymore! No salary! No shopping! No life! LoL…Cause I work as a graphic designer…
pelf: You do NEED a rest day, don’t you?
At least I won’t get to place my comment here if I don’t have a pc!
That would be kinda boring…
pelf: I’ve seen your works — they’re very beautiful
I’m working on sat, so cannot
LOL
I doubt many can too
Even my PS2 is hooked up to my pc
d*mn technology
pelf: Everything we have these days is hooked up to the PC, no? Muahahaha
I have been hearing bits and pieces about this around the internet, but, of course, only skimming - and then zooming my eyes away from the words as quickly as I can!! hahaha!
Until now - I was finally to the point of - ‘Ok - tell me about it…’ and I read your post!
pelf: What good timing!
I don’t know, I just don’t know - now, if they had said Mar. 25th - that would be PERFECT - I’ll have a houseful of in-laws!! (Dear me!)
I suppose I could maybe, possibly try to give it a whirl…hmm…
pelf: And I wish you all the best
Thanks for sharing this… ok, let me see. i’ll stock up double the PC exposure one day before and schedule extra hours the following day… all the best!!
pelf: Hhaha, good luck to you
