In 2007 about 54% read blogs and 21% ran blogs. This is a reduction of about 4% from 2006, and the survey anticipates a further reduction of about 4% in both categories in 2008. Several factors could account for this trend: a slow loss of interest, lack of time, and so on. For myself I can say that reading and contributing to blogs has been one of the interests of my life in the last two years. Here is one of the things which struck me in the survey.
