… it sure feels like the intervals between reporting the next-millionth blog are shortening.
It seems like it was only a few weeks ago that I noted on this blog that the Technorati blogometer turned over 5,000,000 blogs being watched, and here we are again.
As of 9.00 p.m. PST, Technorati is tracking 5,959,830 blogs.
I’ll bet that the 6,000,000 mark is passed by midnight tomorrow, January 13th.
Check back later and I’ll report on how long it’s been since the 5,000,000 blog mark was surpassed.
Update
The roll-over of Technorati’s blogometer as the 5,000,000 blog mark sailed by was on December 11, 2004. If the 6,000,000 blog mark is surpassed tomorrow that will be 34 days in which 1,000,000 blogs have been created and have come to the attention of Technorati.
That’s roughly 30,000 per day during that period. Either something’s off in terms of the counting, or the rate of blog creation has significantly accelerated … because for quite a while the rate of blog creation seemed to be holding reasonably steady at about 12,000 to 15,000 per day, if I remember correctly.
Update #2
6,001,998 weblogs watched – as of 8.50 p.m. Pacific Standard Time
