i wonder if the amazing rise in the number of blogs has significantly altered the structure of the web-graph. extrapolating from a limited perspective of the blogosphere there seem to be more small-cliques forming this way than in the "regular" (if ever there was such a thing) web structure. i imagine at the macroscopic level (degree distributions and powerlaws) it wouldnt have any serious impact because those are just simply how natural human pheomena seem to manifest themselves .. but at some finer granularity are there a lot more (semi-)partitioned small communities in the graph now ?
one thing is certain .. im sure some data mining grad students out there are churning out papers on this
