Google Helps You Vote For President
Google really wants you to vote in the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election. So, in order to increase the percentage of the population turning out on the big day, the company is giving potential voters all of the information they need to actually make their vote count.
Having already made it dead simple to register to vote, Google is now getting into the details. This means that anyone searching for “How to Vote” or something similar will be shown a state-specific guide to voting. This includes all of the various requirements and deadlines.
Before you panic, Google isn’t telling anyone who to vote for, just informing them how to vote where they live. The ultimate aim being to make it “easier than ever for everyone to participate in the political process”. Which is probably more crucial in this election than any other.
The choice of Republican and Democratic candidates (Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, respectively) and the contentious way the two main campaigns have been fought thus far, HAS had an effect on the country though. Google is reporting a spike in the number of people searching for information on voting at the next election.
All I can say is, roll on November 8th!
Millenials are having less sex with less people and waiting longer before losing their virginity. And these trends are being blamed on technology. This is all according to recent research in the Archives of Sexual Behavior which saw researchers analyzing data on adult sexual habits from the General Social Survey.
The research suggests that Millenials (people born in the 1980s or 1990s) are having their first sexual encounter at an older age, and then having fewer sexual partners than the previous two generations (Baby Boomers and Generation X). Which would seem to go against the notion that youngsters are constantly engaging in horizontal dancing.
Most sexperts are blaming technology in one way or another. Some are claiming online dating is putting too much emphasis on looks, while others are claiming online pornography is replacing the need for physical relationships. Whatever the truth, Millenials are, as a group, having less sex than other generations did at their age. Which could lead to a fall in birthrates.
