Valentine's Day - Warm Facts

Here are some facts that should start, or stop, your heart before Valentine's Day:

3% of traffic on Twitter is related to Justin Bieber - gross.

According to a recent study, there’s been a “69% increase in scripted profanity” on television - thx to $#!T my Dad says...

According to a recent poll of Americans' views of various industries, advertisers are no longer at the bottom (yay! my future career), the oil and gas industry is now at the bottom - ha ha, they have gas.

Canada is the tenth most frequent trafficker on Facebook, behind Turkey - mmm.. turkey.

What's the next biggest search engine, behind the mammoth Google? Well, oddly enough, it's actually YouTube. It even surpasses Yahoo, Bing & Ask.com - Side note: Bieber was also the most watched vid on YouTube...

To fit with Valentine's Day and love, here's a related video. I am the best man in my brother's wedding and I hope I don't do this:





Shoutout to Paul Chapman and Stacie Wiebe - hope this doesn't happen on August 19th!


Additional shoutouts to Mike and Amy - August 27th, and Carla and Adam - June 30th

StumbleUpon.com


The internet is massive and scary to surf, it's like an information tidal wave, and you don't want to drown - this site helps a lot: StumbleUpon.com

You check off your interests, like: arts, comedy, technology... then click "Stumble" and it automatically brings you to articles and videos you would like.

I was skeptical about this, but it was pretty good. I checked off comedy, humor, and arts, and it brought me to funny comics by the Oatmeal and hilarious sports bloopers on YouTube. The site is made by Google, so it brings you to some YouTube videos, but only the good ones - it doesn't waste your time.

All you need is an email address - Check it out if you want to surf!


Shoutout to Josh Cook for telling me about this site!
