Though, technically, not ‘tech news’, I think this is pretty interesting. Paul Miller of The Verge, is off the Internet for a year, starting today. No social media, no Internet, no gaming. He’s going ‘old school’ — libraries, dumbphone, thumb drives (if they can be considered ‘old school’), etc.
As someone who is connected around the clock, I can’t even imagine trying to do this. Pretty wild.
The Internet can become a very addictive place for many and it seems that Paul figured it out (12+ hours every day). I wish him luck and hope it inspires us all to take a closer look at how much time we devote to this new marvel, Mindblower!
