24 Hours without Media!?! 'A Day Unplugged.'

 Check out the link below to a blog based on a study of students who actually managed 24 hours without accessing any form of Media. Some very interesting results! After you all completed you Media Consumption Diaries earlier this term I think we all learnt how much time we spend accessing Media in our lives- I wonder if any of you could cope with 'A Day Unplugged'?
