<p>According to Technorati, which now tracks over 35.3 Million blogs, 19.4 million bloggers (55%) are still posting 3 months after their blogs are created.</p>
<p>So now that I&#8217;m back in the game, I guess I can go back to being part of the majority. Though I don&#8217;t know the stats on blog resurrection, I do have to believe that I&#8217;m part of a smaller group of &#8220;fighters&#8221; who believe it&#8217;s better late than never. Kind of like the Dwayne Wade commercial for Converse, except that I&#8217;ve only fallen once and it took about 2 months to get up rather than 2 seconds. (In my defense, the lapse period included St. Patty&#8217;s Day and a sprained ankle&#8230; unrelated incidents.) Anyway, I&#8217;m back (I think) and reporting live on &#8211; wait, what was my original vision/dream for this site&#8230; something about my life in Minneapolis. I&#8217;ve gotta change the heading, &#8217;cause these next facts have nothing to do with the Salvador slogan.</p>
<p>Other interesting facts about blogs:
<ul>
<li>The blogosphere is doubling in size every 6 months</li>
<li>It is now over 60 times bigger than it was 3 years ago</li>
<li>On average, a new weblog is created every second of every day</li>
<li>Technorati tracks about 1.2 Million new blog posts each day, about 50,000 per hour</li>
</ul>
<p>Weather in Minneapolis: Clear skies, 65 and sunny.</p>
