Japan: Number 1 Language of Bloggers Worldwide

Buti pa ang mga Hapon, mga Intsik, Germans at Franses, loves nila ang sariling wika, sila-sila (mayaman ka man o mahirap, PROMDI ka man o laking Maynila, pulitiko o isang aktibista, PhD-degree holder/mataas ang pinag-aralan o wala / elementary graduate) nagkakaunawaan, nagkakaintindihan, popular na naipapa-abot at "nai-intellectualized nila sa pangmasang komunikasyon ang mga bagay-bagay sa mundo at usaping pang-madlang pipol."

It will likely come as quite a surprise to the English-speaking world that the number one language of bloggers worldwide, in terms of number of posts, is not the “language of international communication”, as English is typically regarded. Nor, before the Chinese chime in, is it the language of the most populous state on the globe. According to the 2006 fourth quarter results of the State of the Live Web report issued quarterly by Technorati, a blog search engine which at last count tracks over 70 million weblogs, in terms of blog posts by language, English and Chinese in fact rank second and third, at 36% and 8%, respectively.

Edging out English for first place this quarter was Japanese, with over one-third of all blog po
sts — 37% — written in this language. This is not, in fact, the first time that Japanese has been rated as the number one blogging language by Technorati; back in November 2005, in an earlier State of the Live Web report, Japanese was also took top place with 31%, although the total was much more evenly split with English and Chinese at that time.

Judging by the reaction of bloggers themselves, it would seem that the Japa
nese are as surprised as anyone else at the results of the report.
