New study looks at habits of blog readers, rather than writers
Category:
Blogging News
From Science Daily:
"The UCI Irvine study examined in-depth the blog-reading habits of 15 participants of various ages to determine how they consume content and interact with blogs and blog writers. The research found that some readers frequently post comments, while in others lurk, or visit without commenting."
Among the conclusions drawn by the study, headed up by Bren School of Information and Computer Sciences doctoral candidate Eric Baumer is that blog readers have "diverse opinions of what makes a blog a blog." Citing everything from RSS feeds to personal content as the underpinnings of a true blog; rather than the more staunch 'definition' of a blog as a "frequently modified Web page[s] with dated entries listed in reverse chronological order."

Citing everything from RSS feeds to personal content as the underpinnings of a true blog; rather than the more staunch 'definition' of a blog as a "frequently modified Web page[s] with dated entries listed in reverse chronological order."
The study also determined that readers of blogs seem to interact with blogs out of habit, with "blog reading...ingrained into users' online routine." With the actual content of the blog becoming less important than the actual habit of simply reading the blog or checking it for new posts each day. Furthermore, the timestamp of a blog post was deemed to be virtually irrelevant to readers who tend to automatically read whatever is posted at the top of the blog page and don't necessarily concern themselves with whether or not they've 'caught up' or read every post on the page.
The study also found that blog readers "feel a responsibility to make insightful contributions...[and] produce coherent, worthwhile comments in response to good blog posts."
