I can quit any time.
Actually, in my pre-moderator days, I usually did not turn the computer on at all on the Lord's Day. I enjoyed it. (Yeah, it's yoose guys' fault!--
) I'd read, go for a walk, and not be distracted by flashy headlines or websites. (I admit to being about as ADD as a trout in Spring).
Having said that, nobody turn this into a Sabbath thread, please.
It's not a bad thing to do from time to time to remind yourself that there is a world out there--even if that world is in the world of tactile books.
And I often leave off the internet when I'm heavily under deadline. But that's not so much a fast as an urgency.
I didn't want to sound facetious, but the first answer I thought of was "Try it out and tell us!" But really, give it a try, even if for only a day. You may find that you appreciate the amazing wealth of information on the net even more if you have had time to digest and sort what you've already seen.
