Word of the Week: Podfading

Podfading describes the kind of burn-out that podcasters are prone to - when the effort of recording yet another podcast proves too much, and they just give up.

Of course, the same effect can be observed more generally in the blogosphere. According to Dave Sifry, in his latest State of the Blog Nation analysis, "13.7 million bloggers are still posting 3 months after their blogs are created." Since there are around 27.2 million blogs according to Sifry, this means that nearly 50% aren't still posting after 3 months. Blogfading, anyone?
