[...] I Am The Guy Who Reads Your Blog and Never Leaves Comments (AKA The Lurker) Lol, we all do this. Great post. Was meaning to do a full “reaction” post on guilt-free lurking, but whatever… [...]

Haha my life is complete. I've been waiting for someone to equate me to Dr. Voth with a SAT-style exercise since first taking a class from him in college. :)

Jackbaty, I have similar feelings about not leaving a comment unless you have something valuable to offer.

Most of the blogs I follow I do so because they give me news or inside opinion on a subject I find extremely interesting but have very limited knowledge on. Following their RSS feed for a couple months is kind of like taking a college course. And, just like college some professors (bloggers) want to lecture without students asking questions (commenting) and some professors stimulate open, lively class discussion and play mediator.

I guess this post was more referring to those college professors (bloggers) who stimulate open (almost chaotic) class discussions and me admitting to being the quiet kid in the corner who never says a word all semester long even though I might having something interesting to say.

I wasn't aware that every blog was meant to be a conversation. Hate not being a “good blog citizen” but I tend to wait until I have something valuable to offer before commenting, which may explain why so I seldom do.
