The fifth annual Love Our Lurkers Day, that is. This is the day we spanko bloggers give an extra special shout-out to our readers, particularly the ones who read us regularly, but are too shy to post a comment.
Started and organized by the incomparable Bonnie, LOL Day is an open invitation for our readers to "delurk" and post a comment. It doesn't have to be long, it doesn't have to be Shakespeare. You can just say hello and introduce yourself. You can say why you like the blogs you do. Whatever you feel like saying, it's a nice way to break the ice and make new friends in the blogworld.
I am especially pleased to be involved this year, because it's my first year on Blogger (as opposed to my antiquated blog on MySpace). I feel so much more connected now and I hope readers will feel comfortable enough to step up and say hi.
Here's the deal, folks -- some people may have trouble leaving a comment. Unfortunately, because of one persistently nasty poster, I had to disable the "Anonymous" comments option. There are several other options for commenting, but for whatever reason, some folks are unable to make them work. And damned if I know how to advise them. :-(
So, here is what I suggest. If you would like to leave a comment but you can't, then write it to me at the email address used with this blog: erica.scott.blog@gmail.com. That way, I can collect those comments and paste them into another post, acknowledging you all. Bonnie loves for us to keep a count of all the "delurk" comments we get, so she can compile the stats.
And for those who CAN comment, please do! I'd love to hear from you. Thanks to one and all for reading my blathering. Without our viewers, bloggers would just be keeping an electronic diary. What fun is that?
Happy LOL V!
Happy Love Our Lurkers Day Erica.

erica,
ReplyDeletei was an anonymoue poster for awhile. then i learned how to make goggle work.
i no longer believe in any service at all. i'm thinking of giving up my yahoo account because they have become so commercial i can't stand it.
richadr windsor and pixie have a way to respond in a blog that dosn't need logging in to a vyampyre service that give your info to anyone with the cash to buy it.
try and find out how they do it!!!!
i can apprciate lurkers when i think of the s**t i've been through that may have originated thru reputible sites selling my info to @*%%$#&%%@ sites that then f***d
goggle, my space. facebook..et all...all scams...fuckem! you want to contact me to chat?????i have a phone number...if you can convince me that we have something in common [a tough job] i'll give it to you.
i hate e-mail because i can convey more information in five min. talking than i can in half an hour typing. but the propagandists against talking have p***y whipped the population that e-mail is more fun. i know better. alas...i'm a dynosaur.
sorry for so a vinilla rant but i can't help it.
luv you sweetnes,
ddon
It is indeed a tad bit complicated to comment here, but I'll try anyway! If you can read this, it worked ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great blog!
Cheers
Chross
Happy LOL Erica! De-lurking to say I peek in here regularly.
ReplyDeleteHi Erica! I may have commented before, but I tend to lurk. I wanted to say that I'm glad you moved over from MySpace because I doubt I would have found your site there. I enjoy your humor and stories!

ReplyDeleteHi Erica,
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever commented here, though I've been a reader on and off for years. I particularly enjoy your CHoS entries! Thanks for switching to Blogspot to make it easier for us to follow you, if not necessarily to comment!

I have commented before, but not nearly so often as I read. Thanks for switching over to Blogspot - it's so much easier for me to find out when you have a new post.
