Delurking is Delightful

The Urban Dictionary describes a Lurker as: someone that follows the forum but doesn't post.

I'm a known offender. I admit to being a blogger who's also a lurker.

I visit. I swing by. I read. I skim. I nod. I smile. I laugh.

But then I don't comment.

I'm working on it. New Year's Resolution 2010. Pinky swear.

Some blogs said that the first week of January was National Delurking Week.

Others have said that yesterday January 14 was National Delurking Day.
