I'm not sure if this link has gone around, and the data collection period might be over, but I found this interesting. It is a survey on bloggers by MIT where they ask a bunch of questions about your blog, and how you communicate online in general. They have about 50,000 entries and they do live graphs of your data versus the survey. The survey engine that they use (I think they built it themselves) is really nice, I wish they'd distribute that!

Take the MIT Weblog Survey

One thing I found depressing about the results is how few people use Jabber. I really want it to take over the world, but it definitely isn't there yet.
