De-lurking Week - January 8-12

January 12th, 2007 by Rose DesRochers · 12 Comments

Today is the last day of de-lurking week. Many individuals lurk to get a feel for a blog before they comment. Other times lurkers don’t post because they feel those commenting seem to know more about a subject than they do.

If you are lurking at my blog that is a good thing. I’m glad that you find me interesting enough that I’ve not driven you away. I would really like to engage in conversation with you.

Now is the day to show yourself. Please gather up enough courage to say hello. I cannot promise you that none of my readers will bite, however I’m pretty sure they’ve all had their raby shots.

On a serious note, I’m interested in your opinion. Let’s here it. I won’t know who you are or how interesting you are unless you say hello.

In other news Miss Zoot, is doing something for a good cause. Every comment left on her blog on Jan 8 equated in a $1 donation to Wonderful, Wonderful, Camp McDowell.

If you liked this post, why not buy me a coffee?

    Hi there!
    I don’t think I count as a lurker since I just visited here for the first time today; but I plan on becoming a lurker since I have enjoyed what I have read so far. :)

    I’m not shy and will probably comment when I can get up the courage. :)

    I don’t MEAN to lurk - I think your Akismet is throwing me out!
    Go bail me out, K? I promise to appear in court.

  • Rose DesRochers CANADA Windows XP Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 // Jan 12, 2007 at 8:53 pm

    Peri, yes it was tossing you out. LOL

    Michelle, I hope that you will become a commenter.

    CrashDummie, thanks for saying hello.

    Tony, your comment was caught by my spam control, but I saved you. LOL

    Dan, isn’t that how it works? LOL

  • Dantest UNITED STATES Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0 // Jan 12, 2007 at 10:03 pm

    Rose, that’s how it works with lots of people. With some, though, they never visit my blog no matter how often I leave comments for them. So eventually I just move on. Life’s too short right? ;)

  • Rose DesRochers CANADA Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0 // Jan 13, 2007 at 2:09 am

    Dan, I know that feelings.

  • Pinktest UNITED KINGDOM Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0 // Jan 13, 2007 at 12:02 pm

  • Devrie UNITED STATES Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0 // Jan 14, 2007 at 12:57 pm

    You’ve come a long way. I find your blog posts to be really interesting and well written. I’ve even taken some of your advice.

    Good luck with everything.

    Cheers,
    Devrie

  • Rose DesRochers CANADA Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0 // Jan 14, 2007 at 1:16 pm

    Pink, well welcome to my blog.

    Devrie, thank you for the complement and I wish you much happiness in not only your writing endeavors, but your personal life as well . Thank you for dropping by my blog.

    Hi Rose, thank you for stopping by my blog and for leaving comments.
    I thought I was the only one who liked the socks.(wink)

    I don’t understand the lurker thing myself. If I visit a blog I will comment.
    I have never installed a site meter or I think it would drive me crazy, this way I never know if someone visits and doesn’t comment.

    Then again, perhaps it is some sort of new psychotic behavior such as peeking in windows or hiding in bathroom stalls.lol

    Have a great day. Oh by the way I like the window in your blog title.lol
