Well Hello my Dear Friend... As always, I’m absolutely delighted that you’re here! Let me fill your cup with the latest information on a possible replacement for Google Friend Connect (GFC) that was given to me by my Darling Friend Lisa over at Mompreneur Mogul...
As you probably know, Google Friend Connect will be no longer as of March 1st. Now, we really shouldn’t care about the number in the GFC widget and who we think is reading our every word and it makes moi feel so important that they are following, I mean really... what is this, a popularity contest? Yes!! Yes it is!!! And I have made it past the 100 mark and that’s a BIG accomplishment especially when I can’t stand blog hops! Ummm, did I just say that out loud? **Ahem...**
Okay, what were we talking about? Well... I know if I can’t remember, then it must have been about lipstick! Lipstick does that to me... did you know that I get stuck in the lipstick aisle at Target? Huh? You did? And... OH! GFC! That’s were we were... ooops, went the wrong direction, not that talking about lipstick is ever wrong...
GFC... yep Darling, I’ve gotten accustomed to seeing my Darlings and Dears in the side bar and when it isn’t there any longer, will it matter? Will I miss them? YOU BETCHA!!
But guess what? The creator of the MckLinky Blog Tools, Brent Riggs, has worked with a few bloggers to come up with... **insert Angel trumpets here**... Linky Followers!! Whoot whoo!! Linky Followers is a brand new widget tool that to my knowledge, will work with any blog platform. Sign up, it’s free... and because I’ll miss you Darling!
Until next time my Dear Friend... Ta Ta!
Lovely darling..I am following you on twitter. Network Blogs on Facebook works really well on all platforms too :)
ReplyDeleteYou've made me think Darling... see post above... xoxo
DeleteWhat a clever idea. I will have to look into that.
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty simple Bernie Darling... so is Facebook- HA! lol xoxo
DeleteYes, Google is making so many changes lately that I am getting a little fed up. Yup, I said it!! FED UP!! They are even doing away with my free photo editor, so I have drop some serious loot to keep up with my all-time fav hobby. And don't even get me started about Google+. My followers show up on my regular page, NOT my blog page. UGH!!!! So this news makes me super, super HAPPY!! Free & easy, two of my fav words!! Thanks for sharing the news, my friend!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteGlad I could help M Darling! Oh, btw, I didn't forget about the award thingy, but you know how I get, sidetracked talking about lipsticks instead of awards... xoxo
DeleteThanks for the lipstick, I mean friends tips. I'm going to check it out since I too, will miss my GFC faces staring at me
ReplyDeleteSharon
P.S. Grabbed your button :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Darling! Yours is at the bottom of my blog... not that you're the bottom... that's just where I happened to figure out how to put the pretty buttons and it stuck because like myself, I get stuck on figuring out how this whole blog techie platform works! Sssheeesh!
DeleteHave a wonderful weekend my Dear... xoxo
Awww MC Darling,
ReplyDeleteYou make me smile. : ) Lost in lipstick aisle? Moi?? Yeah, okay maybe... lol xoxo
You have inspired me to set up an account on Linky Followers... http://www.linkyfollowers.com/profile.aspx?id=755 is where you can find me on there. I am in the process of trying to figure out that site!
ReplyDeleteI am going to grab your button and place it on my blogs as well because my readers need to stay connected with you and your wonderful view on things!
Hello Brittney Darling!
DeleteI'm always happy to assist my fellow MILF... as soon as I can, I'll pop by your place and follow you there. Then there's alway FB... Kisses my Dear... xoxo
Thanks for this great post! I think I'm going to add this to my blog, now. I switched to WordPress last month and was actually writing you (and some other of my fave bloggers) to ask that you pop over to my blog and begin following me via RSS or email because, well -- you know -- GFC is dying and I didn't want to lose touch! Then I find this great post of yours! It was meant to be. Anywhoo, hope to see you around C&C soon and that you find a way to re-connect with me! P.S. I'm now following you via Linky! :-)
ReplyDeleteAhhh Sarah Darling,
DeleteGlad you got what you were looking for... Thanks for the follow and just as soon as I fix my lipstick... I'll stop by C&C and put my pretty little face on your linky list... xoxo
oh how exciting, Caff! Thanks for sharing this, I was so sure the internet could come up with a GFC replacement!! I'm on WP and will be losing mine March 1st.
ReplyDeleteloved your quote..."I mean really... what is this, a popularity contest? Yes!! Yes it is!!!"
I went and signed up and will have to figure out how to get one for my sight.
