  Very German, I know, but: How many blogs are shutting down a day and how many of them are lasting for more than 1 month?

  Harald, David's report provides the details but to summarize:
  
  - 19.4 million bloggers (55%) are still posting 3 months after their blogs are created
  - about 3.9 million bloggers update their blogs at least weekly
  - Technorati tracks about 1.2 Million new blog posts each day, about 50,000 per hour
