The Pew Research Center has recently done a survey on bloggers. I only found one fact that was interesting. 54% of bloggers are under the age of 30. So with superior blogging intellect I was able to estimate that 46% of bloggers are 30 or older.

According to the CIA the US median age is 36.5. I would have expected the spread to be a lot larger.

Pew's research included blogs of all kinds. It would be my opinion that political blogs would be a bit older than many other blog categories.

I found this interesting because blogging is such a new communication medium and that fact that it takes a bit of technical ability. I would have guessed that it would have been a younger crowd.

When I started reading blogs I generally thought of the other commentators were younger than I was. I've learned though that many of the bloggers are my seniors.
