Blogs: Multiplying like rabbits

A new blog is born every second, the San Jose Mercury News's "Good Morning Silicon Valley" blog reports in "Please spay your blog." It's citing these just-released numbers from Technorati, which tracks blog activity: There are now 27.2 million blogs (60 times the number three years ago), and they're doubling about every 5.5 months. That means 75,000 new blogs a day. Thus the "State of the Blogosphere" , which does not report, for example, specifically on teen blogger numbers. But InformationWeek does say that "the blogosphere is comprised of entries on just about every subject…. They feature political viewpoints, discussions of major news events, observations of bored teenagers and children, talents and experience of job-seekers, complaints from disgruntled employees and self-praise from corporate marketing and public relations departments."
