Google is making some changes to blogger again. This time they're discontinuing Google Friend Connect for those who do not have Google accounts. I didn't think this would effect me too much but I've noticed that I have fewer friends now than a few weeks ago. So if you'd like to be my friend and follower through Google Friend Connect, you'll need to create a Google account, come to my blog, and click to become a friend. If you don't, I know I will miss you!
Many people follow blogs with a reader these days. Some of the popular ones are bloglovin', feedly, and The Old Reader. And I know others receive emails every time a new post is published.
I usually read blog posts with feedly and sometimes with bloglovin' but I jump over to blogs to leave comments. I love Google Friend Connect and seeing the friendly faces and fun little images of followers in my sidebar and your sidebars when I visit your blogs. I hope you'll choose to continue to follow joy for grace or, if you're new, choose to begin following it with your Google account.
If you have a blogger blog and want to learn more you can read the post about Google Friend Connect changes here.
As always, thanks for visiting!

I have literally just been investigating this myself. I thought I had become a social pariah!
ReplyDeleteI have been reading about this today and have already included this link in my post for tomorrow! (Great minds think alike.) This is really irritating me as I have lost almost 100 followers so far.
ReplyDeleteJust made sure I don't loose touch with you Nancy by clicking the bloglovin button ☺
