You will need binoculars or a telescope to view Comet Lulin. It is just on the cusp of naked eye visibility, so perhaps a very keen eyed individual with ZERO light pollution could see it... but I would wager dollars to donuts that it would not be visible to any random person on Y!A without optical aide.
In a small scope or binoculars, it looks like a very faint and exremely diffuse patch of "smeared" light. Not very impressive as far as comets go, especially if you remember Hyakutake and Hale-Bopp from a little over a decade ago.
It is currently in western Leo, moving farther westward very close to the ecliptic each passing night. Stellarium.org or any various sky map chart have it's position in the sky for any date and location you chose. Even heavens-above.com is tracking this object, so chose your favorite site, grab a pari of binocs, and enjoy!
