The latest numbers on the size of the blogosphere are out.   From Today’s Boston Globe:

David Sifry, founder and chief executive of Technorati, the place to go to track the blogosphere, says that Technorati is now tracking 35.3 million blogs, and that number has been doubling every six months for the last 42 months. On average, a new blog is created every second of every day and 55 percent are still posting three months after their blogs are created. Technorati tracks about 1.2 million new blog posts each day. With blogs moving toward mainstream territory, 12-step programs for compulsive bloggers can’t be far behind.

David Sifry’s complete State of the Blogosphere for April 2006 is here.
