On the Outside Looking in
Looking at Technorati and its report “State of the Blogosphere” was an interesting experience but also highlighted the fact that it is very much US biased. Not surprising really as Technorati is an American site and, to quote their own data, 49% of blogs are published by US bloggers.
I was interested however in information specifically about UK bloggers, for that reason and because I had a pre-occupation with effective communication channels, I created a short survey last week to look at why people blogged and what they felt they achieved by doing so. If you would like to participate in this short survey please follow the link: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/7QRX3PZ
