Just back from vacation and all I can add is that I went two weeks plus a day without looking at Facebook and I had email filters running so that if it didn't have something to do with a Canada Games committee that I'm volunteering on, it got dumped into a "Read this crap Leter" folder.
Very refreshing. But I did miss some small get togethers but my closest friends called me anyways so nothing important missed. Electronic communication is a great tool when people don't give up and forget that there are other options when they don't get a response.
