  • 55% of all blogs are active
  • Over 70% of pings are from known spam sources
  • English and Japanese remain the two most popular languages
  • Blogging Elite – 500 or more blogs linking in the last 6 months

According to the report Technorati continues to spend quite a bit of time fighting spam blogs, or splogs.
