Shutdown Day is a concept started in 2007 by a group of friends in Montreal who noticed they were spending far too much time on their computers. They pledged to shut down their computers for a whole 24 hours and spend that time reconnecting with family and friends, getting out and doing physical activities, and just enjoying the computer-free day. To get people behind the idea of going without their beloved computers for a whole day, the crazy geniuses behind the idea made this video showing some of the alternative uses for your unused laptop!
Now there are even more ways to abuse your poor laptop on its one day off per year – or anytime you feel like getting some revenge. Uncovering.org bring you an entire photo series detailing just what you can do with that expensive piece of technology while you’re not using it to compute.
I think I'll just leave mine to rest peacefully on the table... but hey, I'm a bit boring sometimes!
