Interesting Snippets

I was curious how people in a country with roughly four percent internet penetration and limited mobile data access interacted with Google search and products. Since radio is a popular form of mass communication in Afghanistan, it turns out that people call in to a local radio show called ‘Percipal’ (‘Seek and Search’) and ask their query to the host. The host, who has internet access, does a Google search and then reads the answer on air.
