Blogosphere 60 Times Larger than Three Years Ago

The blogosphere is doubling in size every six months and is now 60 times larger than it was three years ago, according to the latest quarterly installment of David Sifry's "State of the Blogosphere" report. He writes that Technorati now tracks over 35.3 Million blogs. On average, a new weblog is created every second of every day - more than 75,000 new blogs created every day. Technorati also tracks about 1.2 million new blog posts per day, or about 50,000 per hour.

Some 19.4 million bloggers (55 percent) continue to post three months after their blogs were created (in the previous quarter, 13.7 million blogs were active, 50.5 percent). Moreover, about 3.9 million bloggers update their blogs at least weekly.
Although spam blogs (splogs) and fake pings (spings) have increased overall, "the high level of interesting, original content being created greatly outweighs the fake or duplicate content listed on splogs," writes Sifry.

"The Rowdy Roddy Piper Show" w/ "Mean Gene Okerlund

Piper blog http://rodd-piper-show.blogspot.com/

The "Rowdy" Roddy Piper Show is a two hour "tell it all" one man standup performance where he'll have you laughing and crying at the sametime. Now added to the show Mean Gene Oakerlund.
This is the place to come for show information. Roddy a WWE era Hall of famer, when being inducted to the Hall Of fame by16 timesworld heavy weight champion Rick Flare said and I quote " The Greatest entertainer in the history of professional wrestling bar none Rowdy Roddy Piper". Hot Rod as said by Mean Gene Oakerlund in the the Hall of fame footage "Was one of the few wrestler to lay claim to being the most hated and the most beloved wrestler in WWE wrestling history."

Just when you think you got the answers, I change the questions!" was his motto and a weekly interview segment called "Piper's Pit" where he would irritate his guests to the point where a feud would follow. The most infamous "Pipers Pit" incident occurred when Piper cracked Jimmy Snuka over the head with a coconut. Later on, Piper's Pit was used as a vital set-up for the Hulk Hogan vs Andre The Giant showdown at Wrestlemania III.By that time, the "Hot Rod" had turned face and had a spectacular match of his own at WMIII against Adrian Adonis, who wound up bald at the end of the match! You knew the Hot Rod was a tough cookie when he boxed Mr.T at Wrestlemania II and made T look absolutely ridiculous in the process.

Piper was the ultimate rebel of the wrestling world, black balled and out of professional wrestling for refusing to take a dive for 17 1/2 years. Piper has shared the ring with everyone from Andrea the Giant, Hulk Hogan, Muhammad Ali,and a 650 lb Kodiak Bear named Victor.

Philippine-Missions - for Jesus

The newly created blog address is,
http://www.philippine-missions.blogspot.com/

In the Spring of 1992, in obedience to the direction I believed God was giving me, I sold most of what I owned and took a step of faith in missions service to the Lord, moving to the Philippines to begin a lifelong work there. My wife Emie and I praise God for the thousands of people who have come to know Jesus as their Savior and Lord over these past 13+ years of ministry.
This is a faith-based ministry that has been able to continue to minister in many areas as the Lord has provided, with prayer and financial support from Christian individuals and Christian churches—believers who have it in their hearts to see lost people in their own communities and also in other parts of the world come to know the joy and peace of receiving Jesus as their Savior and Lord.
God has touched the hearts of people to help this ministry who either know us personally or have heard about the ministry through the testimonies of friends. We thank the Lord for each person and for each church congregation who is supporting us now and for those who will become partners with us in reaching people for Jesus. We trust God to bless and reward you as we continue to co-labor together for Him.
In Christ’s love,Gordon & Emie Kalich
2 Corinthians 9:8 “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.”

I just added a new blog. Marketing using blogs, I believe, is the future. You don't have to build a web site because you can build a blog. A blog is a web site. It has it own url. Check this one out.

Google and tomorrow - Blogs-Built by Blog Builder

I just read a great article on "Who's afraid of Google? Everyone". Kevin Kelleher Wired Magazine Dec 2005

If your a marketing consult or just a person wanting to sell your products you need to pay attention to what's happening in the Google shpere

This is the link to the article

Google Believer 101, "just getting started"

Way back when there was no Google, one day about 10 years ago, someone said "try this search engine". After trying it I never went back to the likes of Lycos or Altavista. Google was heads an shoulders above the rest.
Now Google is doing it again. Google is taking over the internet. In the last couple of months Google has launched one new program after the other. A good example of what I'm talking about is a program we all used called MapQuest. Well Google came out with map.Google.com and I haven't looked back. Google does it better !!

In the last two weeks Google has launched, Google Video, Google Base, Google Analytics,
Google blog search, gmail, and I'm sure I've missed a few. If your not keeping up with what Google's doing, from a marketing stand point, your being left behind.

Everyday a new announcement, today it's a new RSS clicklet button which says

If you don't have a Google account now "you will". Google is trying to created a "standard for the internet" and "I believe" they're going to do it. It's time to jump on board.

Blogging, Blog Builder, Blog Master, RSS marketing

It is my contention that email marketing is becoming less and less effective. Building product specific commercial blogs with plenty of RSS feed paths (clicklets) for the audience is the marketing wave of the future. Build it an they will come.

11/16/2005 Recent statement from SilverPop.com a market research group

Is the Internet technology powering the blog phenomenon poised to forever change the future of digital marketing? According to industry analyst firm, Jupiter Research, consumers are adopting Really Simple Syndication (RSS) at an astounding rate. Jupiter says individualized RSS can enhance specific aspects of your overall marketing plan, and why it may even be uniquely suited to displace certain types of email.

In its October 2005 report, "The Messaging Innovation Imperative: The Rise of Individualized RSS as Personalized Messaging Medium," Jupiter calls email an embattled communication medium challenged every day by spam, viruses, phishing attacks and hampered deliverability. Individualized RSS--provided it meets seven requirements--represents a great opportunity for companies to develop an alternative messaging system to restore consumer confidence and reduce costs associated with current email woes.

Blogs-build -Bolg Builder adds unique blog

I guess it doesn't take much time to get the word out when you've got a good program. I built this blog http://kiss-costumes-armor.blogspot.com in the morning and by the evening it was on the top of the list when doing a www.google.com/blogsearch search. I had fun with this one.
Call me at 888-613-8893 or email gary@ewebservice.com

He builds quality Kiss Costumes and Armor but doesn't know much about marketing on the internet. I charged a one time set up fee of $250.00 and 29.00 a month. All transactions are
done through pay pal so it's easy on both me and my blogsters.

He has partnered with another one of my blogs http://motorcowboy.blogspot.com the boot people to round out the costume.

What is Rss/XML??- that orange button

What is RSS?

RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication". It's just a way for websites -- such as this one -- to notify you when new information is available. News websites have been using RSS for a few years now to "feed" the day's top headlines to their subscribers, but it's not just for news anymore: If you want to know about new items, specials, and promotions from this site, but only when you want to know about them, subscribe to our RSS feed.

All you have to do is download an RSS reader program -- which is like an email program for your RSS feeds -- and then subscribe to the RSS feeds that you want to check (the procedure for doing this varies from reader to reader). If you already have a reader, great! Just click the orange XML icon:

1. RSS is nothing like email spam, because you only get items from the websites that you subscribe to, when you want to get them, and if you don't want to get any more items from a site, you simply unsubscribe from the feed. No forms to fill out, and no opt-out emails to send. Better yet, when you subscribe to an RSS feed, it's just as anonymous as surfing a web page: You don't give your name or email address to an RSS feed, so there's no way foryour email address to be sold to spammers.

2. RSS keeps you up-to-date, because new items are added to the feed at the same time as they are added to the website.

3. RSS is safe, because the items contain plain text and links, without harmful attachments: No viruses, trojans, cookies, or spyware.

How do I use it?

1. Get an RSS reader. You need an email program to read email. You need a web browser to browse the web. And you need an RSS reader (sometimes called a "news aggregator") to read RSS feeds. Most RSS readers are free, and many operate without additional advertising. Here are just a few:
Pluck
Awasu
SharpReader
FeedReader
WildGrape
NewsGator
FeedDemon
You can find more here.

2. Subscribe to our RSS feed. This procedure varies from program to program, but usually you will need the URL, or web address, of our feed. Use the following web address when your RSS reader software asks for a URL or feed address:
http://blogs-built.blogspot.com/atom.xml

3. Configure your feed. Again, this varies from program to program, but most RSS readers allow you to set how often you check the feed for new items, and whether or not to pop-up new items on your desktop. Remember, you can unsubscribe from the feed at any time.

Blog Builder -- We build blogs

Greetings,
My name is Gary Evans and I just turned 60 this last Saturday. I've been an internet marketing consultant for 6 years now. I have current contracts on 10 web sites and all of them now have blogs.

A blog is like a middle step between a static web site and forum or chat room. It acts like a web site but has the versatile charactericss of an instant chat conversation.

Blogging is the answer to spam. You as the reader can opt in or out as you will. If you don't like what I have to save then right mouse delete I'm gone.

First step, as a blogger, is that you need a reader. I reccommend http://www.pluck.com It works on IE and FireFox and takes about 10 seconds to download.
Try it you'll like it.
