A new study [1] by the Pew Internet and Family Life Project show that 27% of America's Internet users say they read blogs while 12 percent have posted a comment to a blog. This corresponds to a hearty 58% increase from February to November last year, although 62% of the Internet users questioned said they did not know what a ‘blog' is.

"By the end of 2004 blogs had established themselves as a key part of online culture: 7% of U.S. internet users say they have created blogs and 27% say they are blog readers."
