No bloggers in Australia, South Africa or South America. Australia is a surprise, I must say. Almost seems like the swath of writers is in the northern hemisphere - it's cold, so people write?

Probably has something to do with the access that people have to the internet. Asia has 409 million users, North America has 231 million users while Austrialis/Oceania only have 19 million! Take a look here: http://www.internetworldstats.com/stats.htm

Thanks for the weblink. The percentage of users casts another light onto the data. Then one can see that Australia is a high user - which is in keeping with their early awareness of the power of the media.
