Tech Timeout starts this week in Pennsylvania

CNN recently ran a story showing that most Americans have taken a break from Facebook for several weeks or more.

Have you?

Personally, I spend most of my waking hours on a computer (either at work or home), and hardly ever stray more than a few steps away from my cell phone. But when I think about many of my favorite memories, a lot of them have nothing to do with a computer or cell phone. 

So, have you ever taken a Tech Timeout™? Something as simple as turning off the cell phone at dinner with your significant other or family is a pretty easy way to start.

Here is the challenge: Pledge to turn off all the technology in your home (yes, even your cellp hone), for at least ONE HOUR a day, and get to know your family better.
