		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Time&#039;s Person of the Year: You&lt;/strong&gt;

Time Magazine&#039;s Person of the Year for 2006? YOU. Here&#039;s why.
&quot;It&#039;s about the many wresting power from the few and helping one another for nothing and how that will not only change the world, but also change the way the world changes.&amp;quo

		<description>Nice stats. It would be nice if Technorati sorted out some of the update problems as well.

		<description>Hi,
I’m Jodie Luu, currently a student at the National University of Singapore. I’m doing an honours thesis on public perceptions of organizational blogs in Singapore. I came across your report on the state of the blogosphere by Technorati, which is very useful for my paper. Thank you very much for sharing it online. I have a couple of questions regarding the report however.
1. About the number of blogs existing out there, does Technorati take into account the fact that one blogger can have several blogs, some active, some inactive?
2. How do all these blogs get through Technorati’s filter?
3. Does Technorati have any figures about the number of bloggers?
4. Technorati’s report gives a global view of the current state of the blogosphere. Does it have any figures that are specific to countries or regions? Since I want to focus my research paper on Singapore context, apart from the global data, I think it would be better if I can find some data about the blogosphere in Singapore.
I&#039;m looking forward to your response.
Jodie
