MapQuest for Blogspace

Manuel Lima's Blogviz thesis project seems to be a good way to map the changes in information diffusion in blogspace.  As governments around the world are engaging their citizens through their official websites and blogs such as Seoul's Cyber Policy Forum, it will be beneficial for the host to understand the factors affecting the dynamics and diffusion of topics and whether there are correlations between topic proliferators.  Knowing the crucial factors, the government may drive the conversation in their blogs to generate desirable policy outcomes or to educate its citizens in a conversational manner.
