Introduction
Blogging gained momentum in 1999 and became especially popular after the launch of freely
available, hosted platforms such as blogger.com or livejournal.com. Blogging has progressively
been used by individuals to share news, ideas, and information, but it has also developed a
mainstream role to the extent that it is being used by political consultants and news services as
a tool for outreach and opinion forming as well as by businesses as a marketing tool to promote
products and services BIBREF0 .
For this paper, we compiled a very large geolocated collection of blogs, written by individuals
located in the U.S., with the purpose of creating insightful mappings of the blogging community.
In particular, during May-July 2015, we gathered the pro±le information for all the users that
have self-reported their location in the U.S., along with a number of posts for all their
associated blogs. We utilize this blog collection to generate maps of the U.S. that re²ect user
demographics, language use, and distributions of psycholinguistic and semantic word classes.
We believe that these maps can provide valuable insights and partial veri±cation of previous
claims in support of research in linguistic geography BIBREF1 , regional personality BIBREF2 ,
and language analysis BIBREF3 , BIBREF4 , as well as psychology and its relation to human
geography BIBREF5 .
Data Collection
Our premise is that we can generate informative maps using geolocated information available
on social media; therefore, we guide the blog collection process with the constraint that we
only accept blogs that have speci±c location information. Moreover, we aim to ±nd blogs
belonging to writers from all 50 U.S. states, which will allow us to build U.S. maps for various
dimensions of interest.
We ±rst started by collecting a set of pro±les of bloggers that met our location speci±cations by
searching individual states on the pro±le ±nder on http://www.blogger.com. Starting with this
list, we can locate the pro±le page for a user, and subsequently extract additional information,
which includes ±elds such as name, email, occupation, industry, and so forth. It is important to
note that the pro±le ±nder only identi±es users that have an exact match to the location
speci±ed in the query; we thus built and ran queries that used both state abbreviations (e.g., TX,
AL), as well as the states' full names (e.g., Texas, Alabama).
After completing all the processing steps, we identi±ed 197,527 bloggers with state location
information. For each of these bloggers, we found their blogs (note that a blogger can have
multiple blogs), for a total of 335,698 blogs. For each of these blogs, we downloaded the 21
most recent blog postings, which were cleaned of HTML tags and tokenized, resulting in a
collection of 4,600,465 blog posts.
Maps from Blogs
Our dataset provides mappings between location, pro±le information, and language use, which
we can leverage to generate maps that re²ect demographic, linguistic, and psycholinguistic
properties of the population represented in the dataset.

The ±rst map we generate depicts the distribution of the bloggers in our dataset across the U.S.
Figure FIGREF1 shows the density of users in our dataset in each of the 50 states. For instance,
the densest state was found to be California with 11,701 users. The second densest is Texas,
with 9,252 users, followed by New York, with 9,136. The state with the fewest bloggers is
Delaware with 1,217 users. Not surprisingly, this distribution correlates well with the
population of these states, with a Spearman's rank correlation INLINEFORM0 of 0.91 and a p-
value INLINEFORM1 0.0001, and is very similar to the one reported in Lin and Halavais Lin04.
Figure FIGREF1 also shows the cities mentioned most often in our dataset. In particular, it
illustrates all 227 cities that have at least 100 bloggers. The bigger the dot on the map, the
larger the number of users found in that city. The ±ve top blogger-dense cities, in order, are:
Chicago, New York, Portland, Seattle, and Atlanta.
We also generate two maps that delineate the gender distribution in the dataset. Overall, the
blogging world seems to be dominated by females: out of 153,209 users who self-reported
their gender, only 52,725 are men and 100,484 are women. Figures FIGREF1 and FIGREF1
show the percentage of male and female bloggers in each of the 50 states. As seen in this ±gure,
there are more than the average number of male bloggers in states such as California and New
York, whereas Utah and Idaho have a higher percentage of women bloggers.
Another pro±le element that can lead to interesting maps is the Industry ±eld BIBREF6 . Using
this ±eld, we created different maps that plot the geographical distribution of industries across
the country. As an example, Figure FIGREF2 shows the percentage of the users in each state
working in the automotive and tourism industries respectively.
Linguistic Maps
Another use of the information found in our dataset is to build linguistic maps, which re²ect the
geographic lexical variation across the 50 states BIBREF7 . We generate maps that represent
the relative frequency by which a word occurs in the different states. Figure FIGREF3 shows
sample maps created for two different words. The ±gure shows the map generated for one
location speci±c word, Maui, which unsurprisingly is found predominantly in Hawaii, and a map
for a more common word, lake, which has a high occurrence rate in Minnesota (Land of 10,000
Lakes) and Utah (home of the Great Salt Lake). Our demo described in Section SECREF4 , can
also be used to generate maps for function words, which can be very telling regarding people's
personality BIBREF8 .
Psycholinguistic and Semantic Maps
LIWC. In addition to individual words, we can also create maps for word categories that re²ect
a certain psycholinguistic or semantic property. Several lexical resources, such as Roget or
Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count BIBREF9 , group words into categories. Examples of such
categories are Money, which includes words such as remuneration, dollar, and payment; or
Positive feelings with words such as happy, cheerful, and celebration. Using the distribution of
the individual words in a category, we can compile distributions for the entire category, and
therefore generate maps for these word categories. For instance, ±gure FIGREF8 shows the
maps created for two categories: Positive Feelings and Money. The maps are not surprising, and
interestingly they also re²ect an inverse correlation between Money and Positive Feelings .
Values. We also measure the usage of words related to people's core values as reported by
Boyd et al. boyd2015. The sets of words, or themes, were excavated using the Meaning
Extraction Method (MEM) BIBREF10 . MEM is a topic modeling approach applied to a corpus of
texts created by hundreds of survey respondents from the U.S. who were asked to freely write
about their personal values. To illustrate, Figure FIGREF9 shows the geographical distributions
of two of these value themes: Religion and Hard Work. Southeastern states often considered as
the nation's "Bible Belt" BIBREF11 were found to have generally higher usage of Religion
words such as God, bible, and church. Another broad trend was that western-central states
(e.g., Wyoming, Nebraska, Iowa) commonly blogged about Hard Work, using words such as
hard, work, and job more often than bloggers in other regions.
Web Demonstration
A prototype, interactive charting demo is available at http://lit.eecs.umich.edu/~geoliwc/. In
addition to drawing maps of the geographical distributions on the different LIWC categories,
the tool can report the three most and least correlated LIWC categories in the U.S. and
compare the distributions of any two categories.
Conclusions
In this paper, we showed how we can effectively leverage a prodigious blog dataset. Not only
does the dataset bring out the extensive linguistic content re²ected in the blog posts, but also
includes location information and rich metadata. These data allow for the generation of maps
that re²ect the demographics of the population, variations in language use, and differences in
psycholinguistic and semantic categories. These mappings can be valuable to both
psychologists and linguists, as well as lexicographers. A prototype demo has been made
available together with the code used to collect our dataset.
