I find this funny. Why should anyone not use internet on that particular day? Just to see if we can? Sorry, but I will not take part in it. I can go one day without computer and internet easily, may be even more if need be. But I surely won't switch off my laptop for an entire day as a part of an experiment. I just cannot let my fully functional PC which is connected to internet just sit idle for no reason whatsoever. A lot of people work on the internet, earn money for their living, check mails and other things which may be important and needed to be done on a daily basis.

If quite a lot of people are so serious to quit their PC on 24th of next month, I think that is the first day I can surf digg nicely.

There is a perfect reason for choosing a day. It could have been any fixed day. And one more thing is it is on Saturday! One can take off on any day provided he/she plan something else for that day. But, I can't promise that I can do it on 24th exactly. That's where the point comes in. Can you do it on 24th? Yes or No. If yes, one must make sure that you do it justifying it. But, it's kinda dilemma situation for me at least. Hence voted "NO". :)

I can certainly live without comps. But I cant say I wont be using comp tomorrow or on 24 March. It all depends on my mood.

It makes sense for citizens of USA. They get electricity 24 Hrs a day (week or month don't count cuz they can be broken down into days). We Indians shutdown our computers atleast once a day (24 Hrs) due to power cut.

I haven't shutdown my PC for more than a month. Its just hibernate and restore :p
 
is it that much tough.I dnt think so.every day my PC shuts down or better say switches off due to power cuts..and during vacation when I m outstation I do it myself for weeks,however I hibernate it rather than full shutdown.
 
I can :p ...When i was young i did live...Now i m a SOFTWARE ENGINEER..n especially during weekends i hardly sit infront of my PC or Lappy...


Cheers,
Kunal :p
