it's not easy… i resisted the mobile phone trend for 9 years as i got my first nokia phone in 2003, the 6100 model – this is when i finally declared defeat!

I can't spend a whole day without my phone either, but sometimes i wish i can crash it, destroy it and never see its face forever

In my line of work, i am completely dependent on it. I hate it! Great initiative MacDonald

wow! interesting numbers – i'd say the birth rate numbers will shoot up the roof too – there was a case around a power cut somewhere in the us a few years ago if i'm not mistaken, and the results 9 months later were impressive in terms of birth rates…

It worked for us, we took the kids out all day and closed phones .we enjoyed playing with kids under the sun. I ws always thinking about who call me all day and i wanted to see my phone. i missed it all day but being with the family is more important. i cannot do this every day but it was great for one day. inchallah i can do this once a month.

Thanks you Macdonald for this and for free icecream

very interesting initiative!
Hard to do when your livelyhood depends on it sometimes. It has been said that if Facebook were down for even an hour, it would lose approximately 1.7 million USD. That's how technology dependent the world has become!

It's not easy to be offline when you're in the online business, but thanks for the encouragement Pat :)
