mymarkup.net: Några olika undersökningar om bloggläsande

Några olika datainsamlingar om bloggläsande (amerikansk) från den senaste tiden:

Gallup-undersökning - "Blogs Not Yet in the Media Big Leagues" - [F]ewer than one in six Americans (15%) read blogs regularly (at least a few times a month). Just 12% of Americans read blogs dealing specifically with politics this often. Among Internet users, the numbers are similarly low: 19% and 15%, respectively. Mystery Pollster lägger till att 26 miljoner bloggläsande amerikaner ändå är rätt mycket, och att läsarantalet är mycket högre bland unga (21 % bland 18-29-åringar t.ex.).
Resultat från en enkätundersökning från Blogads (drygt 30.000 svar): Year over year, some figures are remarkably stable. One reader in five is a blogger. As was the case last year, exactly 1.7% are CEOs. Almost the same number (44%) spend more than $500 for air tickets. 86% purchased music online, last year and this. Last year, 79% were men. This year, 75% are men.
"The Political Blogosphere and the 2004 U.S. Election: Divided They Blog" (PDF) - länkanalys bland amerikanska höger- resp. vänsterbloggar: Most significantly, we find differences in the behavior of liberal and conservative blogs, with conservative blogs linking to each other more frequently and in a denser pattern.
