Some say I've spent the last couple of days stealing snowmen...but in reality life is more mundane.
I've been putting on some layers, editing some chapters, putting on some more layers and trying to draw the thesis together.
During the most recent chapter re-draft, I felt I needed a line saying: 'The BBC now has x number of blogs...' and realised I didn't know the value of 'x'.
So some numbers for you taken from this index on the BBC news website. I suppose there may be other blogs lurking in the BBC blogosphere that haven't been added to the list but it looks like a fairly comprehensive round up to me.
BBC Blog Network: Number of Blogs
News - 90
Sport - 47
TV - 19
Online - 4
Radio - 42
Other - 7
Total - 209
In the spirit of the 'data journalism' age, I've uploaded this data with links to all the blogs in a Google spreadsheet.
Although there had been earlier blogging experiments, Nick Robinson's blog was the first one launched on the dedicated BBC Blog Network in December 2005. 43 blogs were set up within the first year.
