I can't do a better job of explaining it than she did, so allow her to regale you in the details:
The premise is simple. If you read blogs, then for the month of August, make the "pledge" to click through from your feed reader. No obligation to leave a hilarious comment or send a long stalkerish email (although both, within reason, are always lovely). Just click through to the blog (not on ads unless you are so led) and if you're feeling generous, click around to their older posts.
Just those extra page views can make a big difference for bloggers who could really use the help, or in my case, where page views don't matter so much, a big fat ego boost.
This goes right along with a pledge I made to leave more comments for my favorite bloggers, so I'm totally joining in... and you should too! You can even win prizes, which is always fun.
Visit her site to learn more... or to get a good laugh. She's seriously awesome!!

Love it. I read so many from my reader and never click through. It's wrong, I know it, but I pledge to click through this month!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting - twice, yah. I think I discovered you through your witty and prevalent comments, so you are doing something right :)
I have no idea what a feed reader is, I better get on the ball! I hear the term but I need a blogging for dummys book to learn all there is to know.
I'm with Dee, if someone could explain to me how to use feed reader and click through, I'd be happy to do it and even leave the suggestion on my blog.
Hee. Confusion over feeds seems to be a theme recently. This article explains it pretty well:

I am a clicker to the actual site if I'm reading, so I'll just keep doing that!!
I'm doing it too.
I'm going through the participants and giving some clicking love too.
I'm thrilled there are so many people participating!
Have a great August.
I'm leaving comments for everyone on Kristen's list :) It's the least I can do!
I just joined the Blog the Recession. Such a great idea and fun as well. Another fun perk is finding great new blogs to frequent :)
I love this! I never understood why we'd be penalized for being liked enough to be on someone's reader? One of life's great mysteries I guess. Like Ryan Seacrest.
What a great idea! Off to check it out...
Just dropping a "hello" In honor of the blog recession!
Just stopping in through the Blog the Recession links and taking a minute to click around. ;P
