i do enjoy completely unplugging and being away from the interwebs for a period of time. I took a vacation a few years ago and my laptop had no reception in the mountains. THANK GOD!! I would have not remembered the wonderful things that we did as fondly if i tweeted/blogged about them.
Ha! Thanks for mentioning me. I had kind of been thinking about talking about this topic (and my related topic about the increasing impersonalness) but was going to back off when I saw you had posted on this topic. But no! You gave me an in! Woot!
I want one central site from which I can control all of my accounts for things. It's just too difficult to keep up with them. But I couldn't go without the internet - I always feel cut off from the world when I'm without it. Like I'm out of the loop or something.
So I guess I'm anti a no-internet holiday... even though it would probably be beneficial. If it were only for a couple of days or something.

That's why I don't join communities. It's too time consuming.
But LJ has its benefits. I found my outlet there that's more healthy than punching people in.
But, I do agree with you. Sometimes the amount of time spend on the internet can be scary, but moderating is the key.

Okay, I guess I should comment to this on your Livejournal.
But I can tell you right away, I am important. You need to keep me around.
