Das Bild dieses Artikels zeigt ein 3d Modell der dt. Blogosphere.
- bondaries are gone
- compley global and local networks
- legacy media are still central
- in 10 yeasras the blogosphere will expand by factor 10.
The blogoshere represents the interest structure of the digital public.
Eah national blogoshere looks different.
Blob sizes represent the number of incoming links, closeness imply ??: link frequency, color are similar topics.
Blogger link to ppl of the same opinion: partisan linking.
Progressive bloggers link to NGOs.
Links to newssites peak very fast. While lonks to wikipeadia take sometimes 250+ days to peak.
Youtume has somtimes content that goes viral/peaks fast, sometimes peaks only slowly.
(Very cool visualization of viral videos.)
Global Blogospheres.

Russia: mainstream media do not use soaicl media so much, the bloggers focus on a search engine: yandex.
(I'll skip arabic blogs)
German Blogosphere:

Kochblogs.
Litertur
