"Verbing" was "gifted" to us by the internet's influence on culture. Bleck.
Eh. There's nothing wrong with "verbing", particularly in that most canonical of uses.

It's a perfectly reasonable way to make up new words when there isn't one available for the thing you're describing.

OTOH, it's an abomination in the face of Webster if you use "verbing" (or any other form of word construction) when there's a perfectly fine word that already describes what you're doing. Like, say, "sneak."
