No Phone, Facebook, Twitter , E-Mail, BGP, or Internet. I know Guru wouldn't like it if we did but I don't think 90% of us could anyway.

Could I? Of course.

 

Do I hope to ever be in a position where it's required? Nope.

Nope. Fine without FB or twitter. But my job is dependent upon using email and to a lesser extent the Internet in some way. I guess my cell phone I could eliminate if need be. I would have to get an active land line at the house. How does a cell phone classify as "social media" if it is only used for phone purposes?

Nope... Probably would struggle going 90 hours.

I hear ya. That is the sad truth. Honestly I couldn't imagine going 24 hours not looking at anything social media related. Maybe I should give it a try on a weekend day.

Kind of like could you go 90 days without driving? Sure, if you had to, but why even think about it? The world changes.

Not really I literally could not get to work on time if I couldn't drive. I need that do that to survive.

I hate Fb and Twitter, so I could deal without that. BGP is the only website I go to, so I could most likely live without the internet. My phone? Heck no! I look like a lost puppy when I don't have my phone.

I'd lose my job if I didn't have phone or email...plus, with my ladyfriend currently working on her masters over in Wales, I think she'd be pretty peeved if I were to cut myself off from email and interwebz. Were it not for those two factors, though, I think I could pull it off without many problems.

I am the Manager of an apartment complex. For the first 6 months I lived there, I was the only person in the entire building. They also hadn't wired it for television or internet yet. And I don't have a data package on my phone (AT&T never made me add it for my smart phones, so until they force me I'm not going to. )

 

I still went to work at my regular 8-5 job where I had internet access... But I'm going to tell you that being there at home alone with no TV or internet got really hard. I had books and I had DVDs, but minimal outside contact during my home times. By the time I was getting married and moving my wife in, I think I was nearing a meltdown.

Same here. I could probably manage to shut down facebook, twitter, etc. for 90 days, but can't do without email, the phone, and the internet.

Lets take work out of the equation of course you wouldn't risk losing your job over it. Mainly I am talking about work email.

I have a much better possibility of doing my job without driving than I do without phone/internet/email. The social media like facebook, twitter, and even BGP would be very easy for me to get by without if I had to.

The closest I came was during my trip to Mexico last year. No free wifi, no 3G so all I could use my phone for was my hold em poker game and music. It rained one day so we broke down and paid 10 bucks for 24 hours of wifi. My wife and I made it from Sunday afternoon to Thursday. Had it not rained we would have waited until Saturday. We were fine though. Of course we were at a resort with my brother in law and his wife so entertainment wasn't hard to come by. I wouldn't want to attempt to go without social media if I wasn't on vacation. Later for all that. I need my BGP, Facebook, twitter, iPhone. Yes, I need it like oxygen when I am not on a tropical vacation.

How does a phone or the internet qualify as social media?
