It’s time once again to de-lurk!

SEB has a surprisingly good sized core of dedicated commenters who stop by regularly to add their two cents to the various entries. This post is not for you. No, it’s for the much larger portion of the readership that stop by daily or weekly, but never quite get around to leaving a comment.

Well Veerle of Veerle’s blog has once again called upon her dark powers to declare that it’s Annual De-Lurking Time once again!

What exactly is De-Lurking?

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.

So now’s the time. If you’re an SEB regular who doesn’t comment often, or at all, then hit the comments section and type up a small missive to let us know you’re alive. Doesn’t have to be anything profound, just a simple “Hello!” will do.

I like your site, I think I have commented once or twice. Although I think myself fairly well-informed and a ‘bright’ (in contrast to just bright) oftentimes I find my opinions being made by others, much more eloquently than I could even think them through.

Whilst not a guarantee, at some point you will post something that I will absolutely have to comment upon, and at that time I will.

I’ve been edging towards lurker lately, but that’s due to school.

I"m an occasional de-lurker, but hopefully I’ll be able to post more frequently now that I’ve completed my thesis and graduated.  Keep up the good work Les!

Hello. I check SEB almost daily, and have been for a very long time now, probably close to two years at least. I’m not sure how I came across this, but I know it’s played a large part in helping me become a solid athiest.

Just yesterday I was about to comment on how I felt the new layout should include the photo of Les’ head; then didn’t upon discovering that it had already been said.

I visit SEB almost daily and have been visiting for more than 2 years now but have very rarely commented on an entry.

So, a de-lurking “Hello!” and a big “Thank you!” to Les and all of you making SEB such a fun and elightening read.

Everyone here except me is sick, so, I’m busy taking care of everyone while trying not to get sick myself. I’ll keep lurking to see what you all are talking about. Hey, Les, did you watch wife swap last night? Evangelicals swapped with Atheists. Oh, how I’d love to be on that show!!

Science Goddess here.  I read every day, but comment only on the science stuff, if I know anything about it.  Wow!  A scientist who doesn’t know everything.....

My 18 year old daughter turned me on to SEB and I’ve been an almost daily reader since. Keep up the good work, Les!

Hi, been checking out this blog daily for over a yr now I guess, don’t know how I came across this page. love reading the entries related to politics and religion in particular but I never post any comments, I guess I don’t find anything worth saying that hasn’t already been said. Keep up the good work!!
