The Need To Be Something Online

Not only has the number of blogs Technorati is tracking doubled in the last six months (to 35 million blogs and counting), but according to Sifry's statistics, 55% of the blogs out there are still publishing new content 3 months after their birth. Over half of the people creating new blogs stick with them for at least three months. That number is up 5% from three months ago. On the downside, spam and junk blogs are rising rapidly as well. That's surprising to me. You'd think that as blogs go mainstream, more and more regular folk start blogs because they've been sold the idea of blogging, rather than having a need and seeking out blogging to fill it. But apparently many of the new bloggers are finding something satisfying in the process, as the new blogs that are going online today are sticking around at least longer than they were before.
