Trajectory of Interest In Blogging
I think we must be right around the peak of media interest in blogging. Frankly, I expect beyond. I believe that right behind blogging gets its dues comes near total fatigue in hearing about it all the time.
I fully expect blogging and podcasting to start showing up on overrated lists any day now.
According to research from Pew, the total number internet users in the U.S. who have created a blog has increased from 7% to 9% from January to March 2005.
I can believe that perhaps 9% of users have created a blog, but creating a blog (something accomplished in 5 minutes in many instances) and maintaining a blog are two very different things. I would be helpful to know some more behavioural data on both content publishers and readers to get a better sense of what this trend really suggests.
