Blogosphere quatitative elements, a few slides

Being part of the Corps des Telecoms¹, I have been assigned for a modest blog study within the scope of a communication course. I have found the subject highly interesting because blogs open whole new directions of research and whole new methodologies. Indeed, contrary to most usual communication events (ex: person-to-person talks), it’s potentially possible to retrieve most of the blogosphere content through web crawling intensive methods.

The slides of the talk have been uploaded. Disclaimer: don’t take the content for granted, the professor in charge of the communication course was thinking that this talk was a big pile of stupidities from the first slide to the last. My personal opinion is quite different on this matter. Well, I can’t make everybody happy.
