Sifry’s Alerts: The State of the Live Web, April 2007
The title changed because the former State of the Blogosphere report is now extended by introducing information and analysis relating to the broader range of social media on the Web – what we and many others call the Live Web (another good definition), as Dave Sifry, founder and CEO of Technorati, writes.
Technorati is now tracking over 70 million weblogs, and we’re seeing about 120,000 new weblogs being created worldwide each day. That’s about 1.4 blogs created every second of every day… An interesting detail: In terms of blog posts by language, Japanese retakes the top spot from our last report, with 37% (up from 33%) of the posts followed closely by English at 36% (down from 39%). Additionally there was movement in the middle of the top 10 languages, highlighted by Italian overtaking Spanish for the number four spot.
