De-lurking time at lastleaf.org
I got this idea from Veerle’s yearly delurking posts. And I quote:
The term is used for people that read blogs or join chat rooms or newsgroups and don’t participate in commenting. The readers that just look around because they don’t have anything to add to the discussion or because it’s already been said. Does this sounds like someone you know? It’s something that got orginally started by Sheryl from Papernapkin.
I’m really curious as to who reads my blog since whenever I check my stats I would always be amazed that my feed link is always the top most viewed page. Unless I refresh my feed reader every second, every day while working, then that would be it, but of course I don’t. As much as I wanted to do that just so I could show my appreciation to myself, I just can’t accept the fact that I am fooling myself.
Yes! I admit that at one point I subscribed to my own feed! Oh, how stupid, I know! As if I couldn’t read what I write?!
Also, lately, I noticed that my number of visitors are rising but no one ever comments, so is it because I’m posting stupid things or stupid posts are things or things are posts stupid? lols
C’mon don’t be shy
This is your opportunity to let me know who you are, what you want to read, why you’re staying and dunno, your occupation, your hobbies, interests, first love, definition of love, crush, favorite color, favorite movie, whether you want to have Chicago plastic surgery or not… Whatever info you want to impart for me to know you a lot better! :)
So what are you waiting for? Hit the keyboard now, don’t be shy!
I just added you on my NetVibes feed last weekend, and this is my second time (I think) here on your blog, so I can’t really tell if you have stupid posts. lolz! Kidding. My first love? My parents lol
I’m a big lurker! ^^ But you know that already :P
hahaha thanks for telling me your first love baddie! hehe :D
Malin, yeah and I’m a big luker of your blog as well heeh :P
Hi mae! I’m subscribed to your feed as well! makes it easier to find out who among my online friends have an updated blog. :) sadly though, dahil busy, di maka-comment ng madalas, kaya sorry!! guilty ako jan sa post mo. hehehe.
I can relate to what you wrote.. I check my web analytics everyday and I’m surprised to see an increasing # of visitors. pero konti lng din nagpaparamdam.. oh well. doesn’t really matter. As long as they’re coming. haha ;)
slumbook..ahahah, define love. ako rin dami lurker sa site ko based sa stats.
[...] Mae has successfully convinced some of her lurkers to identify (or de-lurk) themselves by posting a comment on her latest entry. Myself included. Heehee. *** [...]
hmmm… if one is breezing through and just bloghopping, and this fellow doesn’t leave a comment, does this make the fellow a lurker?
(yes. heh heh. saw your blog in a google search for blog parteeh ‘07. nice space you got. :D )
I’m not sure about that… hehehe but thanks for dropping by! :)
