The State of the Bloggersphere-What i Learned

Every year the president stands on a podium and gives a speech to Millions of people called "The State of the Union", simply named, due to the fact that he's discussing....well...the state of our union! All politics, lies, and half hearted devotions aside, Technorati releases similar data every year except they explain the State of the Bloggersphere. All the research they've attained after polling, scanning, and counting through all the bloggers and blogs is taken and they post these findings on Technorati's website.

Most researchers tend to post their results in hard to find places and the majority of the time they're hard to read. Seems to me, 90% of the time those results might as well be in Chinese because they're so hard to decipher. Technorati's "State of the Blogosphere" is a very useful tool, in that, it's very easy to read, straight forward research that is relatively easy to find. Their graphs and tables representing their data seems to be the most effective way of distributing their findings. I learned many things while reading through the results. Some of the things i learned i had already inferred and some i hadn't. I was surprised to find that the majority of bloggers are actually male. Its not a stereotype to say that i thought women would be more into blogging, its just that, in my experience, girls seem to be the one's more interested in finding emotional outlets. ;) i.e blogging. As you can see, my thought wasn't completely outrageous. Girls dominate the social world aside from only one: blogging.
