Technorati’s posted its quarterly State of the Blogosphere survey (Disclosure). There’s been a slight slowdown in the growth rate, but nevertheless there are two blogs created each second. There are 1.6M posts per day, about double last year’s volume. About 70% of the pings Technorati receives (i.e., alerts that a new post has been posted) come from known spam sources. MSM continues to dominate as the sites to which bloggers link.
