Thanksgiving Delurking Week


There are so very many things in our lives that we can be thankful for. I personally, am thankful for such a wonderful group people represented by the RevGals and BlogPals and our community here online. At Bits and Odd Pieces of Mindy's Kingdom recently, some of us were noticing that there has been a drop in commenting recently. So, in honor of Mindy, Princess of Everything, we are having a Thanksgiving Delurking week! (Please notice the cow; that's for Mindy).

Place this image on your blog and announce Delurking Week, starting today and going until November 26th. When you visit a blog, you can either just say "Thank you for blogging" or place a blogstone (o) (The invention of PPB of The Ice Floe) or whatever verbage the Spirit moves you to leave.

Let the Delurking begin!

Gord said...

I'm in. ANd about to do a post about lurking and the idea of de-lurking.

Pink Shoes said...

I'm in, but can't for the life of me remember how to add a link to my blog, preacherinpink.blogspot.com.
It's De-Lurkey-Turkey! Is it bad to laugh at your own joke? Oh, well....

I'm in! www.stcasseroleblog.blogspot.com

Cathy said...

Me too. I'm in - I'm going to delurk, though I am not an unadulterated lurker. . . but I am going to do my best to not lurk at all this week!

Preacher Mom said...

This is a GREAT idea!

Songbird said...

I'm in, with a bonus Thanksgiving Sunday story.

I plead guilty too! I didn't even know what a lurker was until today! Delurking goes both ways, does it not?

Lurking Turkeys

Gannet Girl said...

OK, just watch me make use of Songbird's brilliant instructions by pointing the way to my delurking entry here!

Gail said...

I am an excellent lurker...truly, and I write comments here a lot and laugh every day (and cry and rejoice) at all your comments..keep on lurking. Gail

I'm in, but it is late Sunday, I preached, visited sick, traveled to and fro funeral, etc....And i can't do links when I am fully alert, so drop by and see me.
I am so guilty of lurking! I lurked for months before I even joined.

rev maria said...

I'm not sure I know what lurking is, but I did figure out how to get the turkey-lurkey on my page. And a little post about playing dressup

Trish said...

I read all the time, but I think this might actually be my first time commenting. My bad! I like the blog! Keep up the good work.

Chelley said...

I will try very hard to comment and not just lurk! It is lovely when people comment on my blog though - it makes me a right happy little bunny hmmm!). It will be a miracle if my link works the first time!!

Another Seminarian said...

This is my favorite lurk spot. :-) Thanks to all of you for the amazing guidance and posts.

Princess of Everything (and then some) said...

Might I just say that is one pretty cow!!

I am in! I so love this and all of you!

hipchickmamma said...

oh so busted! i have to admit, it took me a minute to get "delurking"! i'm so slow this morning!

happy delurking week!

Magdalene6127 said...

Friends,this is not about delurking per se; I'd just like to direct folks to http://cheaperthanchocolate.blogspot.com/; Queen Mum's most recent post indicates a huge time of tumult for her and other family members, as her mom has been diagonosed with breast cancer; Guenn Mum herself is still dealing wtih her own diagnosis.

So if you want to delurk, why not pop over there to say "hello" or surround her with blessings...

Mary Beth said...

Stinkin' Blogger...won't let me in...to delurk!

I have great doubt that this comment will show up!

Magdalene6127 said...

that's what I get for typing without my glasses... that post looks a little like our word verification!

jsrhqvq!!!!

LutheranChik said...

Moovalous idea! I know that I have been most neglectful in traveling the ring in the last few months. (I'll have to wait until tonight to get the cow on my blog, though.)

Reverend Dona Quixote said...

Hi, my name's RevDonaQuixote, and I'm a lurker

Anonymous said...

I love the idea!

Image will have to wait until tomorrow, but I'm off to comment!

And I'm here

revabi said...

I am so into this delurking week!

I have gotten behind with commenting due to some paper work for the church needing to be done.
I might even do some mooing as well.

delurking as you please

rev maria said...

Darn, it is a cow. Obviously have turkey on the brain.

Now that I've figured out what lurking is I am busily going down the list to post comments everywhere. You're invited to come read my Thanksgiving thoughts

Prisca said...

I noted this very phenomenona last week! I've missed a de-lurking week in the larger blogosphere and noted that. Glad you're promoting it!

PollyAnna said...

This is the best place to be caught lurking! Thanks to everyone.

see-through faith said...

what fun!

(o) to all :)

Psalmist said...

Delurking here, reporting jumping on the delurk bandwagon at my place, and inviting you to visit the previous entry there to see some unusual fall foliage from a place I love.

hipastorzwife2B said...

I am so guilty of this.
SIGH.
My lurking has overtaken my blogging of late, but I'm back.

Canticles said...

I have officially... delurked.

Anonymous said...

If anyone is reading this in the next hour or so... could you say a little prayer in my direction? Gracias!

Anna said...

I may be accused of lurking. I find RevGals to be a great support to me, even though you may not know me or even hear from me. Thank you RevGals.

Songbird said...

Thank you, Anna!
And Alex, I'm afraid I'm late, but you are in my prayers this morning.

Lorna said...

love PollyAnna's comment :)

Catherine + said...

Ok. I will post something at http://come-to-the-table.blogspot.com because I am thankful for many things but mostly for...

rev maria said...

I'm a day late Alex, but I'm praying for you anyway.

Eileen said...

0 leaving a blogstone..led here through Lutheranchik!

LutherLiz said...

Delurking myself and playing along.

rev maria said...

OK, I give up. I've been visiting all over the place (although I haven't managed all 48 commenters here yet), leaving comments everyplace, and I'm trying to remember where the blog was that was asking about emerging church. How do you all remember where you've been and how to get back???? :-)

suz said...

great idea! I'm in on it @ traveling mercies.
