thing 3: Hydrogen and Gravity make light and heat

Used the advanced search feature of each blog search engine, entering the same specific phrase in each.
Google Blog Search brought the relevant blogs expected by the phrase.
Technorati brought nothing expected and did not maintain fidelity to the phrase.
Blog Pulse kept the phrase but the blogs were of little expected relevance.
Blog Lines required an account and therefore it was not tested.

Apparently blogging derives its significance from the volume of people who do it.
Blogosphere: To what does this term refer that's different than any other communicative environment that accomplish the same ends. Is there a magazineosphere, collectedletterosphere, bookosphere or recordedconversationosphere? How does speech which would have no more than personal significance gain importance merely by being stated and saved publicly, or is the blogosphere populated by experts? What thrives in a blogosphere that would otherwise not?
I see a a lot of hydrogen. Where's the gravity?
I'm not saying. I'm just saying.
(Not to put anybody out but it has been said, on televisionosphere, that there is no third thing.
Actually it was the BBCosphere. Say! this is funosphere!)
Ah well, three down, health to go.
