As a kind of information resource in new environment, the mass data produced by Microblog has its lifespan. Based on the study of three hot topics from Microblog, the amount of comments is considered as the characteristic parameter of Microblog message's lifecycle. The study analyzes the features and distribution of Microblog message's lifecycle and its half-life. The types of Microblog message's life cycle include negative exponent, flat, burst andzigzag. The Microblog doesn't have a fixed half-life and its activity is irrelevant to its lifespan type.
Key words： Microblog; life cycle; lifespan; half-life; comment count
