Blog Readership on the Rise

The number of people reading blogs is rising dramatically, according to the Pew Internet & American Life Project, which has been tracking blog readership since March, 2003. From  February to November last year, those who say they read blogs jumped 58%, to 32 million readers. Still, only 38% of Internet users knew what a Web log was at the time of Pew's most recent survey in November. And Pew can't track how many people might be reading blogs without knowing their name.
