Bloggerosphereio –> The Ultimate Blogger
Who are the Bloggeroshpereios? It’s the term I have officially coined for people who blog for 40 hours a week, and actually think that people read it and care! HA!
Blogging 40 hours a week? I wonder how these hobbyists or professionals’ eyesight will be after 10 years. Are they actually writing for 40 hours or are they reading, writing, researching, e-mailing, searching etc. I would think the former but there probably are some people out there could write that many hours a week. How can any one person have that much to say? Do they have normal social skills or are they more comfortable with relating to people only online?
Professionals’ blog because they like the attention enjoy interacting with my audience, enjoy interacting with other bloggers and valuable for promoting business. That makes sense right? If you don’t enjoy something then it’s unlikely that you can participate fully as true bloggers. Good bloggers connect to their audience and like any relationship; the partner can tell if you’re giving them bullshit.
40% of bloggers have worked with traditional media. Less then 1% of the US labor force was employed as a journalist in 2006. Uhh ohh Steve and Alex. Hope ya’ll make it!
60% believe that people will get their news and info from blogs in the next 5 years. Lord I hope not. I’m a newspaper supporter, go watch the “Newsies” and subscribe to the News & Observer. Then, sing “I’m the king of New York” while you dance down the driveway to pick up your daily paper.
73% of bloggers use twitter to promote their blog. Not too much surprise there, Twitter and blogs tend to go hand-in-hand these days. I wonder if the number of people who read the hobbiest blogs would alter if Twitter exploded tomorrow. (cross your fingers!).
Hobbyists blogs the most at 72% . Next are self-employed people at 9%. Well, big fat duh. People who have few daily responsibilities like spouses, children, jobs, pets etc. have more time to spend oodles of time chatting online for a hobby. It’s fine, I just don’t get it. Get a dog, you’ll live longer.
