45% die before 3 months of age

Dad sent a link to a BBC News item, One blog created 'every second'. According the the article:

Thirteen percent of all blogs that Technorati tracks are updated weekly or more, said the report, and 55% of all new bloggers are still posting three months after they started.

In other words, less than 2 million of the 14 million blogs out there are active, and 45% die before they're three months old. This blog is one of the 2 million. My paper diary is mostly empty. I type more readily than I write longhand. I spend hours everyday in front of a computer hooked up to the WWW through a browser window. Let's hope that's not typical.
