Time to update all your “blogs are exploding” presentation slides folks, “David Sifry”:http://www.sifry.com has just released his latest “State of the Blogosphere”:http://www.sifry.com/alerts/archives/000419.html statistics.
Highlights:
* 27.2 million blogs
* Number of blogs doubling every 5.5 months
* Blogosphere is 60 times larger than 3 years ago
* About 9% of blogs are spam (by various definitions)
* Technorati adds 50,000 posts per hour to their database
Well, you have to grant “The Globe & Mail”:http://www.globeandmail.com/ props for “asking for comments”:http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20060204.weditornote0204/BNStory/Front/home on their redesigned site. They finally killed the feedback form after getting *695* comments making up “one *very* long page!”:http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20060204.weditornote0204/BNStory/Front/home
Reactions are pretty polarized with some love going out to the new look but the “no” side is clearly much more vocal. I guess this is understandable. The site had a major change and given the massive audience for the site it is unavoidable that there will be lots of people angry enough to voice their ire.
