Blogs swamp the world: Survey in the UK // Eypocard

The Guardian from the UK released an article about young people blogging in the UK today.

They use the internet on average 8h/week mainly for online communities, messaging services or email, which is quite a lot, but not that surprising.
What IS surprising: One third of them also said they have their own blogs or webpages!

The survey was a controlled quota sample of 580 people aged between 14 and 21 on September 16-17 and the interviews were conducted face-to-face in 36 randomly selected areas in the UK. The survey was done by ICM.
Seems to be greatly done...

For the rest, I can only add the comment from 'The angel blog':

>One thing is certainly true. If the Guardian is anything like right,
>there are going to be an awful lot of blogs out there.

Zusatz: Hab grad die Eypocard-Story von BloggingTom ein wenig nachgelesen - spannend dass wir auch mal so nen Fall in der Schweiz haben. Tragisch wie von der Firma damit umgegangen wird. Gut dass Blogs durch die starke Verlinkung die Google-Suchkriterien beeinflussen, um Leute darauf aufmerksam machen zu können, dass die Firma nicht ganz saubere Geschäftspraktiken nachverfolgt...! Tolle Recherche von BloggingTom!
