Being a buyer for walmart.com I've always been asked to blog about the internet as well as products and walmart.com

I want to tell you about the Free Hug Story.

 I'll first ask that you watch this video: www.youtube.com/watch
 "Free Hugs Campaign -Official Page (music by Sick Puppies.net)
I'll note this video has over 43 million views..

Secondly I ask that you read this history behind the video which can be found here. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_hugs#Historyhe

"Juan Mann" story is one that is many like others. Social Networking and sharing your life with friends, family, networks and even the whole world is now a part of our daily lives. Whether you're "Tweeting" or updating your Facebook,  Myspace or others pages your sharing information that information digitally with freinds, family or even the whole world.

Broadband/High Speed Internet has made online a part of our daily lives. No matter if you read news, sports, email, social networking or even pay bills online;  the internet has become a large part of our lives in just a few years. Even mobile phones are changing the way we go online and putting that option in the palm of our hands.

Here is some stats i'd like to share:

Broadband Internet (Cable/DSL Modem or High Speed Internet): Has over 349,980,000 world wide users. USA is 2nd with over 66 million total Subscribers. This does not account for those that have use dial up services.

Online Videos: Youtube had over 5.5billion total streams in the month of April 2009. With Hulu  growing 490% to 373 million.

Internet Searches: There was 8,608,488,000 searches in the month of April 2009. With Google Leading the pack at 5.5 trillion 

 That means there is 332.1 searches done for every second in the world. (Just do the math, or do a search.


Ask yourself this, How much time do you spend onlin in a week? Don't forget to count the time you spent getting to this site, reading this blog, and even watching the video in the link. Feel free to comment on your time spent online (This is a family site) and how its changed your life!
