State of the Blogosphere
Since we're all talking about blogging, I checked out Technorati's State of the Blogosphere for 2010 and they reported some interesting, but not surprising trends.
"Bloggers’ use of and engagement with various social media tools is expanding, and the lines between blogs, micro-blogs, and social networks are disappearing. As the blogosphere converges with social media, sharing of blog posts is increasingly done through social networks—even while blogs remain significantly more influential on blog content than social networks are."
I know that just about everyone with something to flog now has a Facebook page, Twitter feed, and website with a blog to continue to engage the audience.
The report went on to state, "The significant growth of mobile blogging is a key trend this year. Though the smartphone and tablet markets are still relatively new and most analysts expect them to grow much larger, 25% of all bloggers are already engaged in mobile blogging. And 40% of bloggers who report blogging from their smartphone or tablet say that it has changed the way they blog, encouraging shorter and more spontaneous posts."
