There's this Organisation http://shutdownday.org/ that spreads awareness against excessive use of computers and it is empowering that by specifying May 3rd, 2008 to be a shutdown day. So if you think you can live without your computer for 1 day check out their wesite mentioned above and participate...
I think this is a great idea especially that this year they are doing flash mobs (According to Wikipedia, "A flash mob is a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual action for a brief period of time, then quickly disperse.")
The challenge is on! You don't have to participate personally, but atleast see if you can get away from you computer for "1 single day"...
