Russian Analytical Digest 69 - Blogging and Russian Politics
The Russian internet landscape is unique and distinct from Western models. While internet penetration is only about one-third of the population, those who use it do so frequently. Daily internet users, who tend to be urban and educated, pay attention to different information sources than non-users, with the internet gaining on television. Russian social media also has distinct categories from Western models. Blogs and social networks blur public/private distinctions, with "friends" often meaning readers. The most popular sites, like VKontakte, combine social and blogging features. To understand Russian internet use, one must consider the local socio-cultural context rather than assume Western frameworks apply.
