A different kind of blogger?
Blog Engines
The blogosphere according to the engines
The blogosphere according to the engines is the indexable
Software optimized for the engines
The “other side” of software-engine relations
Software optimized for the engines
Blog comments do not count for engines
Software optimized for the engines
Bloggers breaking out of the software-engine regime with “dofollow”
Software-engine symbiosis
Engines force upgrades
Software-engine symbiosis
Posts seeking engines by default
Engines are the starting point of the blogosphere
A different kind of blogger
But the engines create different blogospheres
Engines segregate web spheres
Software-engine-blogger relations visualized
Google knows I blog for Google
