Even Without Splogs, the Blogosphere Grows

Where the people go, the spammers go. Technorati’s efforts to separate the blogosphere from the splogosphere result in a more realistic, but still impressive picture of the rise of the blogosphere. They’re now tracking more than 57 million blogs, doubling every 235 days.

In its simplest form, blogging is as easy as filling a Web form. Imagine if only ten percent of the one billion people on the Internet today started blogging in some way, shape, or form. Suddenly, that 57 million number sounds like only beginning. Even a nineteenth-century prince could see it coming.
