Technorati hits 400,000 blogs watched

fourhundredgrand.png Subject line says it all.  We hit 100,000 back on March 5, and 200,000 on April 6.  I forgot to note when we hit 300,000, but it was sometime around mid-May, and I'm too busy right now to go back and check in the data archives.  Technorati is currently tracking about 3,000 new weblogs per day.  Andrew Anker makes some interesting predictions based on the numbers.

Congrats! It's the instantaneous growth thing. I guess it's to your advantage that blogging is such a tight knit community. Word spreads like brush fire :)

Yay!

David: Kathy K and I recently came across a group of "pop muslim" youngsters and through them there is a Phd candiate who mentioned something about constructing a portal. Suggest you take a good look at her weblog and look into this portal thing as it may contain a whole new group of blogs.

More like 9000 per day -- Technorati is over 700,000 in just over a month!

What happened?
