Delurk delurk delurk delurk
In the blogging world, “delurking” is an invitation for blog readers to say hello in the comments section. This is interesting to us, because this website happens to get a pretty decent readership, but we’ve noticed that the comments have been a little sparser this past year.
Hmmm… so do we have more readers, but they just happen to be a quieter bunch? Anyway… here is a post with a direct invitation for readers to leave a note just to say hello (you know, “delurk”).
O.K. Who’s going to take the plunge be first?

I’ll go first. Great website. I really enjoyed yesterday’s talk (Sheldon Solomon). Very interest and he was a great speaker as well.
Hi! I just got my James Orbinsky tickets…
What what? How did you get tickets already? Can I get them? Great blog by the way.
I’m looking forward to Terry Talks so I subscribed to the blog again to find out more.
You folks should get in touch with the CHBE Sustainability Club and arrange some cross-posting with them.

I’m here to delurk. This is the first time I’ve come across this term outside of Starcraft (for younger audience: it’s an RTS game from the late 90’s)
Hi there,
Thanks for this blog, it’s really great to have such a community within UBC. Solomon’s talk was really great, thanks for the tip!
to Scott: ^^ I thought about that too.
delurk -> very onomatopoeic (sp?), like the sound a Lurker makes when it unburrows.
…that’s another starcraft reference, in case you were wondering…
Thank you for all the interesting articles and updates about what is happening at UBC 🙂
I had no idead that delurk was the term used for leaving comments. Sounds a bit freaky.
