To what degree is writing a blog an exercise in narcissism, and to what degree is it an exchange of information?

I read recently that a massive percentage – like 97% – of all blogs that people start, die within six months, and 98% disappear after a year.

Another article (I’ll post the URL if I can find it again) made the observation that the number of blogs that have more than 10,000 views per month (which is a really low bar) is something like .5%. So 99.5% of all blogs have extremely minimal readership.

Why to the bloggers (for that 99.5% group) write their blogs, if their audiences are so low?
