Came across this rather interesting article, Blogging Beyond the Men’s Club [1] which says that the blogosphere is dominated by white males.
“Does the blogosphere have a diversity problem? Viewed one way, the issue seems a bit absurd. These self-generated personal Web sites are supposed to be the ultimate grass-roots phenomenon…So why, when millions of blogs are written by all sorts of people, does the top rung look so homogeneous?.”
Interesting because in my random blog surfing, I have admittedly come across more males, but never felt that the blogosphere had more whites. But considering the high penetration of Internet in predominantly-white countries, the self-perpetuating nature of blog popularity and the fact that women tend to have less free time than men ;o), I guess the results are not that unexpected.
