Popularity

With all the talk of blogs in the news and their influence on political events, how <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ep/20050312/en_bpiep/gallupprobesblogsfindsmostamericanshaveneverheardofthem" target="_new">popular</a> are they?<br />n<br />n<blockquote>Theres no question that blog popularity is spreading by leaps and bounds. But as of late February, when this poll was conducted, only 3% of Americans said they read blogs every day. Fewer than one in six, 15%, read blogs at least a few times a month.</blockquote><br />n<br />nThe numbers are so significant as to boggle the mind. What influence bloggers have over the American public. I personally don't want any influence. I just enjoy it but the article really points out blogging is a very minor thing.<br />n<br />n<b>Popularity? It's glory's small change. Victor Hugo</b>
