Early Morning Stuff

Gotta be up early for work for the next few days. Ugggghhhh...

A few items:

• This quarter's State of the Blogosphere is up. Excerpt: The blogosphere is over 60 times bigger than it was only 3 years ago. New blog creation continues to grow. We currently track over 75,000 new weblogs created every day, which means that on average, a new weblog is created every second of every day - and 13.7 million bloggers are still posting 3 months after their blogs are created. In other words, even though there's a reasonable amount of tire-kicking going on, blogging is growing as a habitual activity. In October of 2005, when Technorati was only tracking 19 million blogs, about 10.4 million bloggers were still posting 3 months after the creation of their blogs.
• Ladies: Bitch, Ph.D. needs your help. She has a survey for you for a project she is working on. Excerpt: If you are a woman who blogs, under your real name or under a pseudonym (or completely anonymously, with neither), and you'd be willing to do a brief survey about your blogging for me, leave me a comment with your email addy, would you?
• Check out the 70s movie stuff at the newly blogrolled Pimpadelic Wonderland.
• Here are a bunch of George Orwell links.
