Another word for the blogger's dictionary

Via Mikey comes the latest addition to the blogger's vocabulary:


blurker (BLUR-kur): n. 1. One who reads many blogs but leaves no evidence of themselves such as comments behind; a silent observer of blogs. 2. One who reads many blogs but has no blog of their own; a blog-watcher or blog voyeur.
"But, Mikey, I can't have a blog of my own! I'm a blurker!"

Wow. I didn't know. Is that part of the social contract? I read your blog, I owe you some bloggage in return? Shoot, man, I have to do some actual work at work, I don't have time/resources to launch a blog -- does that make me a freeloader?

No, no, not at all. Reading this site is all I ask. :-) I just thought this was funny.
