State of Everything

David Sifry has brought us up to date on the state of the blogosphere. Apparently there are over 50 million blogs. That makes my Technorati rating of 380,295 not look so bad. The report also points out some really distrubing and weird aspects of the human psyche. The Indian Ocean Tsunami that claimed over 300,000 lives and hurricane Katrina which almost erased New Orleans from the map brought on far less postings than Valentines Day or Cynthia McKinney bitch slapping a Capitol Police officer. And neither of those two events could top the interest in the National Spelling Bee. Never mind, that makes perfect sense.

Hat tip: No Silence Here
