New York Magazine的文章提到目前約有二千七百萬個部落格，並選出網路上最常被連結的五十個Blog，原文網址：http://nymag.com/news/media/15972/index.html
對國外英文的Blog沒興趣嗎？令我意外的是這五十個部落格裡面竟然有六個是華文部落格：
10. spaces.msn.com/klcintw 12. SamZHU 18. locker2man 26. spaces.msn.com/gb2312 36. spaces.msn.com/atiger 47. princesscecicastle
文章解釋這些最常被連結的部落格很多彼此也都互相連結，才能累積連線數成為Top 50，但其中一些網站則純粹因為在當地是知名大站的關係，這些華文部落格應該就是由於眾多的華人人口才脫穎而出吧。不過我覺得他們所使用的連結次數數據應該不是很正確，台灣有些知名的個人部落格流量應該都比TOP 50裡的華人部落格還大吧。

There are upwards of 27 million blogs in the world. To discover how they relate to one another, we’ve taken the most-linked-to 50 and mapped their connections. Each arrow represents a hypertext link that was made sometime in the past 90 days. Think of those links as votes in an endless global popularity poll. Many blogs vote for each other: “blogrolling.” Some top-50 sites don’t have any links from the others shown here, usually because they are big in Japan, China, or Europe—regions still new to the phenomenon.
