The Blogging Geyser
Perseus Development Corp. randomly surveyed 10,000 blogs on twenty leading blog-hosting services to expand its model of blog populations, first documented in The Blogging Iceberg.
Based on this research, Perseus estimates that 31.6 million blogs have been created on services such as BlogSpot, LiveJournal, Xanga and MSN
Spaces, with 10 million created in the first quarter of 2005 alone.
(…)
Based on the rapid growth rate demonstrated by the leading services, we expect the number of hosted blogs created on these twenty services to exceed 53.3 million by the end of 2005.
