Pittsburghers are known worldwide for their love of football, but now the 'Burgh is getting recognition for blogging, too.

A recent report by Technorati ranked Pittsburgh as the third "bloggiest" city in America.

"I think this particular study was looking at how much they talked about the city in particular and the area and the personality and so forth, so what I detect from that is that Pittsburghers really identify with being Pittsburghers," said blogger Cynthia Closkey.

Pittsburgh native Justine Ezarik's video blog about her 300-page iPhone bill became an Internet it.

Some bloggers revel in their anonymity. For others, their lives are an open book online.

"It's really about my personal life," said blogger Rachel McGregor. "It's kind of like a window. It's like a classier reality TV."
