The Underground Railroad refers to the effort to assist blacks held in bondage in North America to escape from slavery. While most runaways began their journey unaided, each decade in which slavery was legal in the United States saw an increase in the public perception of an underground network and in the number of persons willing to give aid to the runaway. Today, there is a need for a New Underground Railroad led by the Dreamers of Today...The Leaders of Tomorrow.

Socialnomics: Are you ready?



“Videos are 53 times more likely to appear on the first page of search results than text pages...On the keywords for which Google offers video results, we found an average of 16,000 videos vying to appear on results pages containing an average of 1.5 video results—giving each video about an 11,000-to-1 chance of making it onto the first page of results. By comparison, there were an average of 4.7 million text pages competing for a place on results pages with an average of just 9.4 text results—giving each text page about a 500,000-to-1 chance of appearing on the first page of results."***
