How I did it: i made a decision, invited a friend to share in my silence (though he chose to spoke, he did tell other friends we shared about my vow), then passed the entire day without speaking. i only went silent for as long as the sun was out, which was nice. the sound of my voice was foreign when i spoke afterward.

Lessons & tips: meditate while you observe the silence.
