The paper is devoted to comparison of topical structure and basic statistical parameters among the "regular" and "popular" bloggers on LiveJournal. The study has shown a significant topical similarity between both of the user groups. The hypothesis that "popular" bloggers are more interested in social and political topics rather than "regular" ones has been rejected. The discovered difference between the groups is in "regular" users' lesser activity and increased data noise among them.
