Technorati is out with their latest report, which they are re-branding the State of the Live Web. However, at least in my view, that is not what it is. The reality is that no one can scale to capture the entire Live Web, other than perhaps a big search engine. The pie - MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and onward - is way too big.
The Technorati data provides all the usual. However, this nugget is key: blog posts per day, the most critical measure as it relates to blogging, slid. Clearly people are publishing in other places and it's taking their time away from blogs. The overall impact of Web 2.0 is healthy, but blogging has matured and it's peaked - just as we and others have suspected.
