Blogosphere: entertaining arithmetic from Technorati
The blogosphere has grown more than 100 times since 2003, states Technorati in the person of David Sifry. The State of the Blogosphere report states that as of July 2006, there are 50 million blogs. The environment is growing by leaps and bounds, doubling in volume every six months for the third year. Sifray made a reservation, however: it is unlikely that such growth rates will continue.
“According to the data of last July, about 175,000 new blogs appeared daily, that is, two every second,” says Sifray, and then exclaims: “Will I really announce 100 million blogs in February 2007? Yes, you're kidding! In his opinion, development with constant intensity is impossible, and soon the heat will subside.
The head of Technorati backed up his words with the growth curve: at the end of 2003, the number of blogs doubled in 40 days. By early 2004, this period increased to 4 months. By July 2004, blogs were “doing the norm” for six months, which lasted, as already said, until July 2006. But now, according to David's feelings, blogs will need more time for * 2 - maybe 7 months.

Technorati records about 1.6 million posts per day, or 18.6 posts per second. The flow of records increases markedly with the appearance of bright social events. This week most often in the blogging topics were: AOL, advertising, Bush, Flickr, Hezbollah, Iraq, Iran and Israel. According to BlogPulse, Mel Gibson and Fidel Castro with brother Raul are also incredibly popular. Recall that with the news that the Cuban leader temporarily transfers his authority to his brother Raul, online bookmakers began to take bets on the exact day of his death to the commander.
The change in the size of “blog-nations” is noticeable. English (34%) loses ground and, perhaps, Japanese (33%) will soon come out on top.
Sifray also noted that blog quotes have increased many times over. But the media are still leaders in this regard.
