The document discusses strategies for connecting with lurkers, who make up 90% of online communities. It defines lurkers as those who are "just looking" rather than actively contributing. The document then presents 11 "laws" for attracting lurkers and turning them into active leads and customers. These laws include presenting an imperfect image to seem more human, adding value so lurkers can contribute, acting in ways that project the desired culture, and providing content in small "info snacks" to keep lurkers engaged. The goal is to get lurkers involved and participating in order to capitalize on this largely untapped segment of users.

3. Internet for Just looking
Lurker is a term who’s meaning has evolved.
No longer a “stalker”.
Lurking is internet for “Just looking”.
When people say “I’m just lurking” they are
asking to be invited to the party.
Lurking has taken on a bigger role with the
emergence of the self-service economy.

7. Look to the future
Beyond the 100% of 1:9:90 (your community),
there are two larger groups.
Lookers: People who are seeking to solve a
problem that you can address today.
Futures: People who will one day become
lookers (People that could need you).
You can apply your own estimates, but 10x is
not a bad starting point.
i.e. Simply continue the series.

ignoring the lurkers.
