Or will the Blog Boom soon bust? Glenn Reynolds, law professor and blogger at Instapundit.com, joins us to help shed light on the more than 29 million blog sites now tracked by blog-search engine Technorati.

The stock market started 2006 like a bull reaching a high of 11,000 in January. But more bearish sentiments are creeping in as higher oil prices and interest rates dog investors' outlook. Kojo and his guests talk about the economy, smart investing and where the potential and pitfalls lie in the markets.
