Did You Know??

1-8 couples that are married in the last year in the U.S. met online
This number was less shocking to me when it appeared. Online dating has been the new thing these past years, and from the sounds of it, the results have been pleasing to many. My uncle actually decided to try online dating after a brutal divorce, and he did find someone to spend his time with. She was pretty cool in my eyes, but that was only because her second house was neighboring to Dennis Quaid's summer house. She was real big in the music industry, so she had money I guess. But it didn't really fall through, since my uncle was just kind of looking for a good time, and I don't mean that in a bad way, and she was lookin for someone to settle down with and spend the rest of her life with. Anyways, 1-8 marriages still seems to be a large population of online dating users.

China will soon become the number one English speaking country in the world
I really don't know where to begin with the irony in this fact. I always knew that English was well known to be used around the world, but I would've never guessed for China to be the number one speaking country in the world

It took this many years for each technology to reach 50 million people
Internet- 4 years
Ipod- 3 years
Facebook- 2 years
