Resumen
This article reports that blogs constitute a remarkable artifact of the Internet. Most people think of them as Web pages with reverse chronological sequences of dated entries, usually with sidebars of profile information and usually maintained and published with the help of a popular blog authoring tool. They tend to be quirky, highly personal, typically read by repeat visitors and interwoven into a network of tight-knit but active communities. By analyzing the structure and content of more than one million blogs worldwide, researchers have now unearthed some fascinating insights into blogger behavior. Three out of four livejournal bloggers are between 16 and 24 years of age. Their interests are highly correlated with age. The surprising category of 1-3 year olds consists of individuals creating blogs for their pets and newborn children. The age-correlated interest groups showed a steady progression from early high school through college, to 20-something lifestyle, into a more refined 30s, a somewhat conflicted 40s and even into later life.
