			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey Guys and Gals today we are going to play a game called Contact Your Representatives! You all should have heard about SOPA by now, and how it could ruin how we currently use the internet, and how you will be the victim. Companies like GOOGLE, WIKIPEDIA, REDDIT, TWITTER, and even FACEBOOK are all against this bill and for very good reason. </p>
<p>FIRST: if you do not know what know what the hell I&#8217;m talking about READ:http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-tech/post/googles-brin-calls-sopa-censorship-akin-to-china-iran/2011/12/15/gIQAlV2HwO_blog.html<br />
or<br />
here is a video explanation http://vimeo.com/31100268</p>
<p>SECOND: Call your senators! https://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm<br />
Call your district representatives! </p>
<p>https://writerep.house.gov/writerep/welcome.shtml</p>
<p>Call the Whitehouse! </p>
<p>http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/write-or-call#call</p>
<p>Write an email as well! </p>
<p>http://americancensorship.org/</p>
<p>THIRD!!!!! SHARE THIS POST!!!! </p>
<p>I don&#8217;t care if you&#8217;re involved with politics or not, this bill will have serious consequences for anyone that uses the internet on a regular basis, especially if you&#8217;re into things like music, movies, tv shows, etc&#8230; </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s funny I used to think that people that spent the majority of their time playing WoW were bad, but in reality half of my friends are more engrossed in a social media network, than the real world.</p>
<p>For so long I&#8217;ve been addicted to be being &#8220;connected&#8221; and doing things thinking about how I&#8217;m going to word it on Facebook when I get home, or even being the first of my friends to tag us somewhere. Commenting, and trying to start discussions with people that I know would lead to nowhere.</p>
<p>I will no longer be consumed as I have been with Facebook. I will no longer wakeup, and check if I have any notifications, or what everyone posted on their walls. Over the course of the next few days I plan on eliminating a lot of the clutter of so called &#8220;friends&#8221; that contribute nothing of value to my life.</p>
<p>There was a noticeable difference in the activities I was doing while not on Facebook, I spent more time doing things I enjoy, and actually spending time with the people I care about rather than having conversations through FB with them while sitting in the same house as them. I also found it harder to spend time with some people, for the simple fact of how engrossed they themselves were with FB, and other social media on their phones, and computers. I could be having a conversation with someone and they wouldn&#8217;t even know what was being said. Agreeing with an occasional nod of the head, or even losing sight of the fact that a living person was in the same room as them.</p>
<p>If I were to do it all over again: I would eliminate other social media sites such as Google+, YouTube , and Twitter as well. While I did not spend a considerable amount of time on these sites, I did find myself more drawn to them than before. Maybe to fill the void that Facebook left me with. I even logged into MySpace, but ended up sending them a message to close the account permanently. I would also ban looking at any screen within an hour or so of going to bed (Other than setting my alarm of course). All of these small things seriously add up.</p>
<p>Until you try going without you won&#8217;t even realize how much you&#8217;re missing out on, and how much time you&#8217;re thinking about, and living in a virtual reality.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>35 days left of 2011. Have you accomplished everything you&#8217;ve set out to do this year? I know I haven&#8217;t, but this year has been one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Both in growing as a person and adventures.</p>
<p>In 2011 I have made some amazing new friends that I&#8217;m now extremely close with, I went to Europe and back packed for 2 weeks on the bare minimum, I&#8217;ve accomplished more in music (guitar/singing) than ever before, I have everything ready to get my concealed carry permit, I&#8217;ve been elk/duck hunting, adventuring and exploring the vast expanse of Utah, and for the past few weeks I&#8217;ve been going to hockey games (something that I never knew I would enjoy as much as I do).</p>
<p>I&#8217;m going to conquer 2012.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is my first post using devannielsen.com for all other 30 day no facebook challenge please see <a title="http://30dayexperiments.posterous.com/" href="http://30dayexperiments.posterous.com/">30dayexperiments.posterous.com</a></p>
<p>The first and last 5 days of this challenge I feel are the hardest. The first because I was breaking an intense habit and addiction. I would literally wake up, and after turning off the alarm on my phone, look at facebook. The last because I&#8217;m interested in catching up, being proud that I accomplished such a feat, being able to post random things I think others will be interested in.</p>
<p>It was an original intention, but for the most part I&#8217;ve also stayed off of G+, I will probably also be checking that out again the same day I log into facebook.</p>
<p>The future of me and facebook: I will be following guidelines (that are subject to change after more thought and deliberation) such as no logging into facebook within the first couple hours of waking up, no checking it before I get the most important items off of my to do list, et cetera.</p>
