GFC No More

Many of you know that Google Reader and with that the possibility of Google Friend Connect is going bye bye as of July 1st, 2013. If/when this happens there is the possibility of not having our followers or favorite blogs to read that we have collected over the years when we sign into our dashboards. Have no fear! There is another site out their called Bloglovin'. Many many bloggers have already made the transition over to it, but in case you haven't heard of it yet, then you might wanna keep reading.



With the loss of GFC you wont be able to follow your favorite blogs or have followers anymore through this widget anymore. Bloglovin' acts the same as Google Reader in the sense that you can follow your favorite blogs, but it goes one step further in the way that you can categorize your favorite blogs also. I have categories like crafty, beauty, family....things of that nature. This way you can locate your favorite blogs in an instant, instead of scrolling through your feed.

This is not going to be a tutorial on how to work Bloglovin' because the site is really easy to navigate and many other blogger have done those tutorials also. (see below) I encourage you all to sign up, link up your blogs and start following your favorites over on Bloglovin' if you don't already do so!

Here's a couple of good tutorial's for you if you need some help! Comment below with any other good ones! Also leave me your bloglovin' account so I can follow you!
