The 5 may 2010 is suppose to be a international no Internet day for 24 hours.

There will be no international phone calls, Facebook, satellite, emails or AG.

Why? Because of maintenance. You have to know that the Internet is 41 years old and never got maintenance or performer boosts. If we don't get maintenance, the Internet could crash at anytime.

So? What will you do on that day? Will you survive? What are your thoughts about this?

My internet will probably be down again then anyways.
Thanks to Steam though, I can play most of my games off of it anyways, the only thing I might not be able to do is my homework.

The internet will never crash, because it is an amorphous network - so long as a single node is broadcasting, the internet is still there.

I will cry for the whole day because of my heartbreak.

Honestly though? I probably will read a book or do excruciating manual labor. No kidding.

I think you mean 21 years old. The internet was not created in 1969.

So is this mandatory for everyone?

I don't think there's really been a time in the modern days where internet has crashed around the world. Certain companies/connections/areas can crash, but it's not frequent.

Wait, 24 hours? Starting and ending at what hour PST? I assume it will be different than GMT...
