On January 1st I disabled the data on my iPhone, turned-off my e-mail, and said goodbye to the Internet for 31 days. I’m chronicling the journey with a letter a day, complete with news clippings, quotes and thoughts on technology. Each letter is hand- or type-written, mailed, then scanned and posted by my friend, Marisa Ducklow, creating a conversation between friends and open to the world at large. When I came back online (on February 1) nearly half of the letters were still in transit due to “weather, the distance, or the mood of Canada Post that week,” as Marisa so aptly put it. So, I’ve decided to refrain from writing in this space until each of them do.
