Desvendado o cibermistério!

Ele é um dos mais visitados blogues do mundo e chama-se BOINGBOING - A DIRECTORY OF WONDERFUL THINGS (é o número 1 do Top 100 da Blogrolling). Passei por lá agora e fiquei elucidado acerca do mistério Technorati de que tenho vindo a falar. Leiamos:

David Sifry's Technorati service -- a blogmining and analysis system that can tell you the shape and velocity of the blogosphere at any given moment -- has been cranky and creaky for a couple days now. Sifry has posted an update to his blog, with info on how things are going and the difficulty of keeping pace with blogging's amazing growth.

Allow me to give you some growth statistics: One year ago, when I started Technorati on a single server in my basement, we were adding between 2,000-3,000 new weblogs each day, not counting the people who were updating sites we were already tracking. In March of this year, when we switched over to a 5 server cluster, we were keeping up with about 4,000-5,000 new weblogs each day. Right now, we're adding 8,000-9,000 new weblogs every day, not counting the 1.2 Million weblogs we already are tracking. That means that on average, a brand new weblog is created every 11 seconds. We're also seeing about 100,000 weblogs update every day as well, which means that on average, a weblog is updated every 0.86 seconds.


Um blogue criado em cada 0,86 segundos é OBRA!
