I did a similar thing. I haven't IM'd in... well currently I've been in Canada for almost a year, and I stopped like 95% of my IM's over a year before I first came to Canada, so I'm thinking like 3 years with near complete IM silence.
I've also cut out TV before, I found it quite liberating as it allowed me to focus my time more. However, the TV has crept back in, but it'll probably go the way of my IM when my wife finally gets a laptop so we don't have to share one... it's quite hard to sit doing something when she tries to steal it off my lap every 30 seconds.
I have recently joint up to Facebook, but I already feel I'm neglecting it. I sign on like every 2-3 days because quite honestly I don't have any friends. I ditched 80% of my friends after I graduated, because I realised they were all immature losers, I then lost the other 10% when I started spending more time out of the country than in it and the last 10% are here in Canada.
One thing I find quite strange is that I'm perfectly happy having no friends. I do have a few friends, but they're also my wifes so she does 90% of the non-hanging-out talking, where as I usually do an unequal share of the talking when everyones together and I'm not sure how as I usually only talk when asked a question.
