How People Spent their time Changed from 1930 until today:
From LinkedIn Post From LinkedIn Post Originally posted by Leonardo Freixas on LinkedIn: Your job is temporary. Your family is permanent. At work, you can be replaced. At home, you can't.

What's Under the Water?
A recent news story about a popular UFO-reporting app called Enigma, which allows users to report sightings has recently seen an uptick in reports, but they're not coming from the skies, but rather underwater.
