Blogging to Share Knowledge?

Blogosphere shows a bursty evolution

(Kumar et al., 2003): in scale, community structures, and connectedness

57.5% of authors are pupils & students

(Herring et al., 2004)

70.4% personal journals, clearly less

for filtering & knowledge sharing

Schmidt & Mayer (2007):

k-loggers are workers, rarely pupils & students

Key Motivations: community building and social

networking (Nardi et al., 2005; Schiano et al.,2004)
