Blogging numbers likely to equal out

Media analysts are predicting that the number of blogs will level out in 2007 with 100 million blogs. Over 200 million have already stopped writing their blogs. According to Gartner analyst Daryl Plummer, "Everyone thinks they have something to say, until they're put on stage and asked to say it." Some people have stayed committed to their blogs where others have gotten bored and stopped updating.

Tracking firm Technorati recently reported that 100 000 new blogs are being created everyday but based on people's attention span, Plummer doesn't think that blogs are likely to see much more growth.
