As you have probably heard, Google Friend Connect will be closing in July 2013. I see where some of you have been switching over to another free followers gadget. Some have mentioned Linky Followers and some have mentioned bloglovin.com. I’m not sure how these two differ, although Linky followers appears to look similar to the Google Friend Connect. What direction if any, have you decided to go? Help or suggestions much appreciated! Thanks!!
Mindy
Oh Mindy, what to do....I'm scared....not to sure about all this....I need help too. Hope we find some...Good Luck, Francine....Love your Header picture, to cute.
ReplyDeleteI went with Linky Followers a while back b/c it is easy to do and only requires to start a free account. Linky Followers also does not place ads on your blog or at your dashboard.
ReplyDeleteHi Minday - I downloaded all of my blogs I follow into a bloglovin acct today and it was painless and easy. I don't know if I'll stay there, but at least I won't lose my blog list! I will check out linky too, thanks for providing a place to ponder this ~*~Lisa
ReplyDeleteI went to bloglovin so far.
ReplyDeleteBummer blogger is stopping it...why do they have to mess with things. I am a creature od habit and hate changes on computers....big pain isn't it!
Most of my fav bloggers are choosing Bloglovin...I am dreading on this new change. YUK, Janice
ReplyDeleteSo confused.
ReplyDeleteLast year they said the same thing and nothing happened..
Who knows..

Hi Mindy, I don't know what to do, why can't they leave well enough alone, I am so afraid of loosing everyones blogs. I have made so many wonderful friendships and hate to loose being able to contact my blogger friends. I hate change. hugs, Lecia
ReplyDeleteI don't know anything about the Linky one. I switched to Bloglovin' and it is fine so far. I tend to list the blogs I read most on my actual blog page and go to them that way rather through a reader.
ReplyDeleteI caved in to the panic as I was scared to lose some of the blogs I follow. I thought I would start early and try the different ones to see which I liked better before doom day. Bloglovin was easy and I imported all my blogs from google reader in one step.
ReplyDeleteUh oh...I have no idea what this means! I am so "un-computer savvy" that it's amazing I can even maintain a blog, much less make major changes. Guess I better start checking this Bloglovin' thingie out.

Oh, crap! More changes? I haven't been blogging very much so I didn't think it was gong to happen. Darned thing. Why can't they leave well enough alone!!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck Girlfriend. I guess I'll try bloglovin...
Boy, if you snooze you lose. First I found Picassa has changed and I can't figure out how to assemble collages anymore and now Google is going to change? Thanks for posting this and getting input from others who have already made the leap. ~Roberta
