Even people in South Carolina know what blogs are

Winthrop University professor Scott Huffmon (better known as “Frequent Commenter Scott” around these parts) recently investigated the South Carolina public’s acquaintance, or lack thereof, with the blogosphere as part of the first Winthrop Poll of state residents; the results, as reported at LaurinLine, were quite interesting, with over 2/3 of the state’s public claiming familiarity with the concept of a “blog.”

Hey it could have been worse—I could have gone with “Hicks Diss Blogs In Sticks.” Or used the term “Cacalacky.” Or made a Strom joke.

As Jimmy James once said, “Free advertising… well, that’s publicity you just can’t buy.”
