Searches for Sex Declining

According to AP news...

Internet users are doing far fewer searches for sex and pornography and more for e-commerce and business than they were seven years ago, University of Pittsburgh and Penn State researchers say in a new book.

Twenty percent of all searching was sex-related back in 1997, now it's about 5 percent," said Amanda Spink, a University of Pittsburgh professor.

What is disturbingly interesting is...

"The searches are taking less than five minutes.." Spink said.

So a lot more teenage boys must be searching then! ;-)

Thanks Jeff!
