According to this MarketWatch story, the world is going blog-crazy.
Technorati.com says it’s tracking almost 14 million blogs. But which of them really matter, have opinions or information that people find useful?
For the love of Pete, that’s a lot of blogs.
But is anybody reading the random ramblings?
An analysis posted by Gary Price at SearchEngineWatch.com estimates about 10% of Web logs “matter” — that is, they have interested at least one person to subscribe to an RSS feed. Bloglines, a Web-based reader, estimates that 1.1 million bloggers have attracted subscribers.
How many of those 10% that have attracted subscribers are active blogs? I’m guessing the number is much less than 10%.
On the other hand 90% of blogs “matter” to blog spammers. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
