Android Application crashing with JSoup

Question

Here is the outline of my problem. There is a main activity with 2 buttons. When the user clicks on the 1st button (randomButton), a new activity (Random.java) will start. This new activity will have a TextView widget. The text of the TextView will change to the title of a website I pull with JSoup.

EDIT : I am using JSoup 1.7.2 if that makes any difference.

I am using an AsyncTask yet my application is crashing once I click the button to start the new Activity (Random.java).

Relevant Portion of Main.java The new activity will start within the randomButton onClickListener

randomButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Random Quote Will be Generated...", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();             //

        //Now a new intent will be created to go to the Random.java activity! 
        Intent intent = new Intent(getBaseContext(), Random.class);
        startActivity(intent);

    }
});  

Random.java

    public class Random extends Activity {


        //This is the activity launched when the user selects the randomButton on main activity.
        Handler handler;
        TextView textView;

        @Override
        protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.activity_random_quote);
            // Show the Up button in the action bar.
            setupActionBar();

            handler = new Handler();
            textView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView);   
            new GetTitle().execute();

        }

        private class GetTitle extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, String> {

            @Override

                }
            @Override
            protected void onPostExecute(String title){
                TextView textView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView);
                textView.setText(title);
            }

        }

        /**

         */
        private void setupActionBar() {

            getActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);

        }

        @Override
        public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
            // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
            getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.random_quote, menu);
            return true;
        }

        @Override
        public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
            switch (item.getItemId()) {
            case android.R.id.home:
                // This ID represents the Home or Up button. In the case of this
                // activity, the Up button is shown. Use NavUtils to allow users
                // to navigate up one level in the application structure. For

                //
                NavUtils.navigateUpFromSameTask(this);
                return true;
            }
            return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
        }

    }

Within my AndroidManifest.xml I have :

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses-permission>

dalvikvm is not finding this method Jsoup.connect(" http://www.google.com "). Check if Jsoup.jar is in your libs folder. If yes, check if you're exporting your project private libraries.

this should be checked.
