The past few weeks I've had a lot of new and interesting blog referrals. Of particular interest are some of the non english blogging blogs. Most of them I can get a feel for what they're blogging about because of the posts they link to - but the specifics are fuzzy. Can anyone translate them for me?
Die Content Schmiede || Handakte WebLAW Blog || Der Schockwellenreiter || CNET Japan - Lessig Blog || MediaTic || CNBlog:Blog On Blog || Generation neXt || Kyyninen Paska
Update: And another - eCuanderno || Metablog
Comments
Page:
generation neXt: It's about your little Blog Statistic, that a normal Blog-Visitor stays 96 seconds at a blog.
Nothing more :)
The first pice of the posting is about a other statistic at 20six UK.
The Comment is about, that such statistics like yours can't be right; 'cause you can't take the exacte time a visitor stays at a site; can't you?!

OK CNET Japan - I have to download Japanese characters and I think my Japanese is beyond useful these days. But it could be a mirror of http://www.lessig.org/blog which is in English.
Hmm for the next one you would be testing my extra extra rusty French (open to correction from others, and again stilted translation.)
Media Tic: Via Florence Le Cam. 96 seconds is the average time spent (average length of stay) on a blog by a reader. That's one of the key numbers in this post by the blogger at the Living Room who has sampled 350 blogs using the same public stats system: Sitemeter
Florence Le Cam's entry is at (http://www.flecam.com/breve.php?id_breve=74)
in french/english
She got it from Mathemagenic (http://blog.mathemagenic.com/2003/11/03.html#a822)
in english
Who got it from Blogcount (http://dijest.com/bc/2003_10_21_bc.html#106679059634388245) who seems to have originated that little round.
Wow Dazza, you're going global at breakneck speed (someone count the days)!

Oh Thomas beat me to Generation X ...yes second part is about you..roughly translated."And then: Darren Rowse has analysed 350 Weblogs that use the Sitemeter counter and has found that a blog vistitor spends an average of 96 seconds on a blog visit. The duration increases for blogs with comments, decreases for A list bloggers (to 37 seconds);"
Kyyninen Paska - got your link from Blogcount - about the 96 second post.
Now, which of your posts interested the Chinese blog I wonder?
(I'm glad that all that hard work you did is not going unnoticed Darren.)

From eCuaderno:
Darren Rowse de LivingRoom publica la serie Blog Tips (también edita Visually Speaking).
It basically says:
"Darren Rowse of LivingRoom published a series of Blog Tips (he also runs Visually Speaking)."
And of course "Blog Tips" and "Visually Speaking" connect to their respective links.

D - use an online translater at http://babelfish.altavista.com
ie. this Chinese one

try google translator. it comes up with some funny expressions sometimes.

If you had an Italian one I could be of some help. (My French is rusty and someone's already done that for you.) Don't rely on Babelfish, it's desperately literal and often a word-for-word like that is unreliable 'cause it doesn't take any account of the context or sentence structure (sorry - still seem to be a language student at heart!!) alice

Hi,
Here's a rough translaton about that post I had on my website
"There was an interesting article about blogs at the Big Picture". Would you have guessed that islandic is the tenth popular blogging language? Blogcount refers to an article (your article) which informs that the the average length of stay on a blog is 96 seconds."
If there's anything else I can do, visit me and leave comment somewhere there.

Indeed, http://blog.japan.cnet.com/lessig/ is just a japanese version of http://www.lessig.org/blog .

My German is a bit rusty but it seems your blog tip series has proven quite popular (sorry about the somewhat stilted translations):
Die Content Schmiede (the Content Forger or Blacksmith?): Darryl Rowse presents some good tips for blogs in his Living Room. (linked from Der Schockwellereiter)
Der Schockwellereiter (The Shockwave Rider): There's a nice (or neat) series on blog tips at the Living Room (linked from Lessig )
Lessig at http://www.lessig.org/blog/ has his entry in english
Handakte WebLAWg : Darryl Rowse gives [here] a valuable and invaluable series of blog tips.
