Come on Out and Play!

It is de-blurker time! I declare it so! So, if you are reading this in your feed reader, or you come by the page but don’t normally write any comments when you do – well, today is the DAY! (It does not have to literally be today. Just whenever you read this – that is your today day.) Don’t be a blurker! Say hello! Even if you have never said anything in the past, I want to hear from you!

Bring out the Blurkers!

Wow, I can’t believe it has been almost 5 years since I wrote the first blurker post! How time flies.

Spread the news – there is a new word on the street! Brought to you by Mike and the letter C:

Blurker (BLUR-kur): n. 1. One who reads many blogs but leaves no evidence of themselves such as comments behind; a silent observer of blogs. 2. One who reads many blogs but has no blog of their own; a blog-watcher or blog voyeur.

Now I know you are thinking that it is scary, that you don’t know me so you have never said anything before. Know what? You’ll never know me if we can’t meet. We can’t meet if you don’t leave a comment. I’ve said “hello” already in this virtual sense – now it is your turn to say hi back!

If the comment doesn’t appear at first, WordPress sometimes decides to moderate them. I do not always understand its ways. I will approve them as soon as I return though, promise.

Now … talk!

OK. I admit it. I’m a phantom blurker. Except I only go to 3 sites, so perhaps I would be better characterized as a phantom tri-blurker.

It seems like you had a de-lurking event just a month or so ago!

I’m trying to put a contest together so I can actually bribe my blurkers into coming out to play 😉

Hi! I’ve actually commented before…a long time ago. I find that I go through phases with my commenting. I go through phases of commenting almost daily then stretches of silently observing. But I do love your blog and I’m happy you’ve decided to go with a career in photography. 🙂

I’m only a semi-blurker. I’ve been known to leave comments here and there and once in a while. I still love to stop by even though the knitting is now over at Pointy Sticks. I find all your tech ideas fascinating, and I wish I knew more!

Hi
I don’t think I have ever left a comment, but I do stop by often..I don’t knit, I’m not a geek or nerd, I just like to read some blogs daily and yours is one of them..I do enjoy the photos..keep up the good work..

You caught me! As much as I love to have comments on my blog, I admit I tend to blurk. I love your podcast, I just started listening last week – I’ve listened to all of them, it was really neat to see how you progressed as the podcast went on, you’re great! I also love your blog – keep up the great work!
Happy knitting!

i have no idea what the heck im doin haha,and i have no clue how i came upon this??? so happy easter everyone and see ya:)

I’m de-blurkering (if that is a word?). I came across your site a few days ago and have been reading a few posts here & there. Love it!!! I’ll be back to read more. Feel free to come over & meet me when you get a chance.

hey! i’ve been following your page since i was in the 7th grade when i came across it by accident at school. (im now a freshman in college). i love your photography – they’re always used as my desktop photos.

🙂

Hey there! I commented a long time ago…nothing too spectacular or memorable, I’m sure. Can I tell you how JEALOUS I am of you? 🙂 One day I’ll do the photography thing too….one day…. (I’m not a crazy stalker, I swear! ha ha)
