Giving up the Internet
Date: Sunday, 6 February 2005 05:33 (UTC)Hm. I occasionally contemplate giving up email, the way Donald Knuth did, since I'm annoyed at the amount of spam I receive. But I'm not sure whether I could pull it off, either; it's just too useful.
Though I suppose for many things, good old snail-mail would also work, even if it's slower.
