I dropped my home internet service about a month ago. I activated my cell phone's hotspot capability, so I still effectively have internet, just much slower and I'm much more conscious about using it.

Pros:

• Saving $45/mo.
• I spend more time doing productive things.

Cons:

• Streaming multimedia is no longer a viable option for entertainment.
• The internet isn't as fun anymore.

Interesting artifacts:

• I'm getting to sleep earlier. Now that the internet is significantly less fun, it's much easier to shut it off.
• Since text loads more easily than video and graphics, I'm reading more stories.
• I'm also working through my backlog of things to do, rather than acquiring yet more things to do.
