When/why are P/M blog posts too frequent?
I wasn't online much this (long, for me) weekend. And I come back to what seemed like 25 or so blog posts on the 4 or 5 blogs I read regularly. And not much of it was useful.
Were the bloggers just bored this weekend? Is there some market-driven reason for putting up as many posts as possible right now?
Did anyone else notice this? Just seemed odd to me.

It is normally a downward trend Monday to Sat with a partial spike up on Sunday and then a further spike to Monday, then repeat.
Except for last weekend which was effectively 4 weak days in a trot with a very sharp recovery today.

A lot of people use it as a chance to get caught up. I was able to go surfing for two days and on a mini trip and still managed to schedule a bunch of posts that I've been meaning to write for a long time.
