We’ve all been hearing that GOOGLE Friend Connect (GFC) will be departing on 2/29/12 for non-Blogger blogs. Rumors are also spreading that it will be phased out for all blogs eventually (including blogger blogs)
So what’s a blogger to do?
Good News! There is a NEW linky tool available for all us called Linky Followers.
One of the things I love about this new tool is that it works for
THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY OF BLOGGERS
(it doesn’t matter if we’re wordpress or blogger, etc.; whether we’re large or small –
we can all be connected in this new way!) I’d definitely encourage you to explore & set it on up for yourself (it’s soooo easy to set up & it’s FREE!)

You can still have & use GFC in tandem if you like but you cannot auto transfer your GFC followers to Linky Followers.
If you are already a GFC follower here at Northern Cottage, I’d love it if you’d join up as a linky follower to stay up on the fun!

ReplyDeleteThanks so much for hosting the Linky Hop. I absolutely love this new tool -- it connects those of us on WordPress with those on Blogger, etc.
ReplyDeleteHmm, can't help but notice there's a lot more blog links than Linky Followers -- hope more will use the new tool.
