Most of you have heard by now that Google Reader is going the way of the dinosaurs in a few short weeks. This means just about nothing to me as I never ever use it, BUT rumour also has it that Google Friend Connect (GFC) aka how most of you lovelies follow my blog might just be heading out that very same door, as well.
I've had Bloglovin' for a while now, but I never really used it until I started to pay a bit more attention to just how effective it is. Think - Google Reader x 10 - it's that good. It gives bloggers like us the chance to get a cool digest in our emails and scan through the posts to see what we might have missed on our rounds of the blogosphere, which is good if you're a slightly maniacal comment-whore like myself.
In all seriousness though, I really love and appreciate every single one of you that has consistently followed my lil' old blog through thick and thin (really thin when I took a seriously long hiatus). It makes my day to know that awesome people such as yourselves give a crap what I have to say, and it seriously brightens my day to read all your sweet and thoughtful comments. YOU are the reason I can't stay away from blogging permanently, and it would break my heart if I lost you lovelies just because GFC drops off. If you don't have Bloglovin' yet and you're on Blogger, pretty please get an account so I can make sure to follow you all forever and ever....kisses and smooches and whatnot ;)
Following you now, chick! <33
ReplyDeleteThanks, sweets! :)
DeleteI'm already following you there :) I made the switch a couple of weeks ago!
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty great, huh?!
DeleteOoh, I've read a post about this explaining that GFC will not be taken down despite the rumors. But just to be sure I'll make an account and follow you! :)
ReplyDeleteI hope that's true! It's one of the biggest selling points of Blogger for me! Thanks, Eunice! :)
DeleteI was already following you on Bloglovin, but LOVE this post! I'm (still) using Google Reader, but starting to like Bloglovin as well. It's much better than feedly, imo.
ReplyDeleteAww thanks, Cayce! Bloglovin' is pretty much my new favourite tool haha
DeleteI use feedly now...I like it better than Bloglovin' but am following you there too!
ReplyDeleteI've never even heard of Feedly, but I'll have to look into it! Thanks, Melissa!
DeleteI'm already following you via Bloglovin', so YAY. Lots of love for you and your blog! xo
ReplyDeleteJust one of the MANY reasons I adore you, Alexa :)))
DeleteI'll have to find you on there, Aman! You've definitely become one of my favourite go-to blogs :)
ReplyDeleteI need to get more active with bloglovin'. I follow you through RSS - well, Google Reader soon to be Feedly. I'm really having trouble adjusting to Feedly. I'm still using GOogle Reader.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if they will get rid of GFC next. I've been hearing rumors about that for more than a year, though...
ReplyDeleteAlready following via Bloglovin, RSS in Feedly, and email subscription :)
