Business Week says 20,000 blogs in whole blogoshpere. Oops.
In an article by Olga Kharif called Blogging for Business:
"In fact, these blogs, which now account for a handful of the estimated 20,000 blogs on the Web, could eventually grab a lion's share of the Internet audience, says Chris Charron, an analyst with tech consultancy Forrester Research in Boston."
That's off by how many zeros? Three? Four? 2 million weblogs? 20 million? I mean, Technorati is tracking 3.5 million, and they don't have everything. Where did Kharif get the number? Just email press@dijest.com for a quick and reliable estimate.

No, the article says there are 20,000 BUSINESS related blogs, and estimates these will dominate the lion's share of the Internet audience. I can agree with this since most of the blogs I read of people I don't know are truly boring. With the exception of dooce.com, that is.

The full paragrpah:
"While celeb blogs typically revolve around personal crises and hair vs. the considerably less sexy Linux and routers, business execs' blogs are no less successful in rallying the faithful. In fact, these blogs, which now account for a handful of the estimated 20,000 blogs on the Web, could eventually grab a lion's share of the Internet audience, says Chris Charron, an analyst with tech consultancy Forrester Research in Boston."
How can I parse this as 20k biz blogs? I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure this was just a typo.
