Technorati is known widely for its quarterly State of the Blogosphere reports, analyzing the trends
around blogs and blogging.
They released their recent report that follows:
70 Milion blogs out there now! Thats about 120,000 per day or 1.4 blogs every second!
"Spam and splogs (spam blogs) continue to be a problem in the blogosphere, and there was a marked increase in splogs that coincided with the holiday season last year. Technorati has been tracking between 3,000 - 7,000 new splogs created each day, but there was a significant spike in splog creation during early December, when we tracked over 11,000 splogs created each day during December - a total of 341,000 splogs that we removed from our indexes during that period."
Other interesting notes - There are about 1.5 million posts per day, or... 17 posts per second. Japanese the #1 blogging language at 37%, with English second at 33% , Chinese third at 8% and Italian fourth at 3% .
