I didn't do some kind of deep analysis. I just saw that separations rates were unchanged. I Googled the unemployment rate at the same time and it's unchanged. So I made some assumption, possibly not a very good one, that those job

Facebook is my only real connection to interact with people. I work remote and spend all of my free time with my family but I don't have any real-life friends. So facebook fills a little bit of a void where I can feel like I have a few

One example is "how to tie shoes". It scrapes the content from wikihow and displays it to you. There is no need to click through to the site to see the content. Something similar happens for recipe searches.
