Gawker have gone live with their latest new sports blog – Deadspin.
If you want to know the power of having a successful blog network – check out their stats. At the time of writing this – the blog went live about 10 hours ago and has already had 7000 visitors.
My name is Darren Rowse and I’m a full time Blogger making a living from this new and dynamic medium from blogs like Digital Photography School and TwiTip - Twitter Tips.
Back in 2002 I stumbled upon an article about ‘Blogging’. I didn’t know it at the time but that moment changed my life. Since then I've become a full time blogger and have blogged on over 20 blogs and co-founded the b5media blog network.

Darren, that is impressive although I have to caution you that when you set up site meter, which I just did six weeks ago setting up our blog, you can start your counter at any number you want. So it’s tough to say if that is an actual or artificial count. Best thing to do is watch it over the next 24 hours.

you can tell its real Trevor if you look at their referals and particularly the graphs for the last day/week etc.
there were 300+ visitors an hour.
Gawker are a huge network so these numbers are not unusual for their new blogs.
