Dynamics of a Blogsphere Story

Very interesting take on the physics of memes in blogspace.  Especially the segmentation of types of posts:

  1. Lengthy opinion and molding of a topic around between three to fifteen links with one of those links the instigator of the story;
  2. Vote post where the blogger agrees or disagrees with a post on another site;
  3. Reaction post where a blogger provide her/his personal reaction to a single post on another site;
  4. Summation post where the blogger provide a summary of various blogs and perspectives of where a blog story has got to by now.

Here's some exerpts of the conculsions:

  • Rarely can an individual blogger get a story going.
  • The best blog stories are those that are branded with a word or phrase that is highly identifiable with that story.
  • The stories that get going are not usually subject specific blogs but stories that cut across all interests of the blogging community.
  • While individuals offer their opinions, it is usual that a blogging story cannot be orchestrated by an individual.
  • ...blogs cannot be read in isolation from each other. Blog stories are understood and appreciated in aggregate and not in isolation. On the other hand, mainstream media stories tend to be read in isolation rather than read and compared.
