If you follow a blog privately does the blog author know?

Privately as in just checking in every now and then?

no.  It would show up in a list of my followed blogs but I don't show up in her list of followers.

I would think if you followed privately no one would know.
I copied this from blogger

Following Privately: When you follow a blog privately, your profile image and link to your profile will NOT be displayed in the blog's Followers widget and the blog will not be displayed in your Friend Connect profile on other sites. However, you will be subscribed to updates for this blog which will appear in your Reading List on your Dashboard. Additionally, following a blog privately will create a subscription to the blog in your Google Reader account.

I could be wrong, but to me this is saying no.  It is your little secret.  But I am unsure.  To be sure I am going to unfollow your blog.  Then I will go and refollow in private.  I am going to do this now.  Let me know if you see me in you followers on your dashboard.
