I commented earlier this month that bloggers tend to wildly overestimate their influence. Proof of sorts comes from a recent Media Guardian story about a survey of UK taxi drivers, hairdressers and bar staff. Only 30 per cent had heard of blogging, and just 10 per cent were aware of podcasting. Conversely, 40 per cent knew about ‘dogging’, which is basically shagging in a public car park and not caring if people watch or join in. No numbers sadly on how many people actually participated in dogging (or blogging).
