nz blogosphere: August survey released

The full nz blogosphere rankings have been released. The survey period featured an increase in traffic across a variety of blogs - most likely because of the increased political activity/news in advance of the general election. Blogs seem to be getting referred to more and more in other media - often not even in derogatory terms. Blogs have been mentioned in parliament on several occasions this session.

The task of surveying 187 blogs was made easier this time round by the increasing levels of co-operation from fellow bloggers. To all those bloggers sending in their stats, thank you.
