Blogs Booming Worldwide

Around the world, blogs have hit the bigtime, imediaconnection.com reports, citing a comScore Media Metrix study of blog visitation in eight countries.

For instance, in the U.S., one third of the population blogs. But Canada beats out us Americans, with 58 percent of all internet users visiting the online homes in October 2006. Half (51 percent) ot all Internet users in Spain also were fans of blogs.

These stats sure make me glad that I followed the advice from a number of consultants. They urged me by insisting that, "If you’re an author, you’ve gotta have a blog."

Thanks to Andy Wibbels, author of Blogwild! and the blog expert who set up my blog, for the heads-up on this new blog research.
