Catty. Chatty. And Occasionally Trashy.

Fear The Blog, Love The Blog

Gritsforbreakfast has some great notes on blogs and blogging. Here are few interesting points, but go read it yourself, lazy.
"...blog readership increased 58% in 2004 making it one of the fastest growing media,...Blog readers already constitute the equivalent of 20% of the total newspaper audience and 40% of the talk radio audience"

Here's something we already knew. Blogs do better on search engines than campaign web sites. Check out one of our favorite games, Googlefight, where we kick Rick Perry's ass with Google links.

Just this week, we saw once again what the viral world of the Internet can do with the 'Adios, MoFo' t-shirts. Saturday night the NBC affiliate from El Paso called us for a report and today's FWST breathes new life into the story. The whole 'adios, mofo' thing would have probably petered out just four years ago but with blogs swirling around it has stayed in the news cycle for almost a whole week now.
