Your Blog Post is Good For Less Than Two Days

From Physics Web, a very neat piece on how long people generally read a news story after it appears on the Web. Short answer, less than two days :

If you think you're reading the news, be warned that this story -- and any other on the web -- will be barely read by anyone 36 hours after it was first posted. That's the message from a team of statistical physicists who have analysed how people access information online.

Very interesting for any blogger trying to attract readers to their site, as I am sure the same general principle applies.

Hint: Keep cranking out them posts.

PS. Am still on West Coast. Won't be posting again until Friday/Saturday.

    'Big Joe' Volpe is a little behind in his promise to post a list of doners on his website, reports Kate at SDA. Perhaps something to do with the claimed 35,000 "new members" signed up by Joe? Looks like a real "donationgate" developing right under Liberal noses.
