The 21-Day Technology Challenge
"The hustle of family life -- work, school, appointments, practice, homework, dinner, bed -- is constant. We move in and out of activities and commitments with ferocity...And since our life is designed to fully embrace living it, we have to be mindful of all the pieces that might creep in and occupy more than their fair share. Technology is one of those pieces." Author Janell Burley Hofmann works hard to make sure her family is mindful in its use of technology.

In this article she eloquently makes a case for the Slow Tech movement, and offers up seven ways to make our use of technology more balanced and conscious.
