I also observed how much bloggers mention and link mass media and how much they use illustrations in the blog postings. Using content analysis I researched five personal blogs from Estonian blog catalogue Blog.tr.ee TOP 100. I analysed altogether 1317 postings from year 2007 (between January and December), which I divided into 22 topics. There were altogether 9135 comments. I concluded that bloggers who write egoblogs are focused mostly on themselves – the most used topics/categories were myself – self analysis, etc. (12%), everyday chronicle (11%) and practical aspects of everyday life (11%). The most commented topics were society (15%), practical aspects of everyday life (11%) and myself (11%). Mass media was mentioned in 6% of blog postings and linked in 12% of blog postings. 1% of blog postings was password protected and 81% of blog postings did not include link to mass media or mentioning of mass media. Illustrations (photo, video, graphics, etc.) were added to 30% of blog postings; 70% of blog postings consisted of text only.application/pdfH Social Sciences (General)infoühiskondInternetblogidpäevikudbakalaureusetöödThesis
