It's nonconfrontational -- at least, if you're any good at it -- so it's perfect for me, as I was just reminded recently that I am just a big ole chickenshit.
I think... no, I know that I'd be pretty good at it.
I have binoculars. I'm unobtrusive. I can employ a laserlike focus when I need to.
Most importantly, I'm really good at remembering useless bits of personal trivia gleaned from small talk and everyday conversations (both direct and overheard); combined with an above-average ability to do Web searches, this means I can track you down, figure out your schedule -- all those good core stalking competencies.
Not remembering a name even after I've met someone (non-stalking material) three times? Still working on that part. But tell me your first name, you're a runner, went to Georgetown and live in Arlington, and I can track down your phone number.
Boy, that didn't go over so well.
Anyway, there's no fear of rejection, even if people do happen to stumble upon your incredibly obliquely-worded blog entries (or even entire Web site), so there's no pressure. Very low stress. Relaxing, even.

I don't know; I've heard about you librarian types. -- Joe
I am absolutely abysmal with names too. Over the years I have adapted to this by having a friend remember the names for me. It's a lot easier. Also if you have forgotten a name and have a clued in friend, they should introduce themselves and find out the name again for you!
Take a few good snapshots of yourself and definitely change the blogger profile pic and I can guarantee you that the girls will hunt you down. ^_^
Hey, what's the matter with the blogger profile pic? I like the blogger profile pic. -- Joe
