Bloglovin'

Because I want to be a little bit more timely in hopping on a trendwagon than I've been in the past (I still feel like a clown wearing red lipstick, clean eating makes me shiver, and my first born's chic hairstyle brings all the jealous to the yard.)


 Follow on Bloglovin

(if you do ... thank you!! and if you don't ... my loss)


It will be hard to say goodbye to Google Reader (even though you can import all your olds into the new!!) ... but I think it will be like getting a new cellular ... it feels so unnatural initially but soon your fingers will have easily memorized all the best shortcuts and you'll have me under your favorite contacts in NO time. Just wait.

      Google is discontinuing the reader in July. Crazy horses. It's already off the Google toolbar .... I don't know why because it seems to be wildly popular.

      Thank you for following along on the BL ....

      You just sign up for an account (you can use your fbook account IF you chose to stay with the ever-changing giant) and there is an option to import all your reader blogs!

      Well thank YOU for blogging ;) Ummm ok another Dense Question in 3...2...1...: How does one change to Bloglovin' then? I hate changes. I hated Facebook too because they kept changing things too..but that's a whole 'nother can o' worms..

      Ok, I have no idea why I have the Urge to Update you on this piddly thing, but I did it, I switched over. Not that I know what that means..I'd ask my computer-savvy Hubster, but he stays away from all things Blogs, unless I tell him to read my latest ha! Thanks for keepin' us In the Know!

      Yay!! Hope you like it. Sounds like some people like Feedly. But I think BlogLovin is easy!

    So, I've been using bloglovin' for a while but this whole google-reader-going-down-the-tubes thing introduced me to feedly and I kind of love it. Apparently I'm in the minority though as most people I've heard hate it! Meh, such is life. Either way, I follow you on both!

    I switched to Feedly and am loving it. You have to change the view settings to be more like Google + but, I like the flexibility of layouts and such.

    Thanks for sharing about bloglovin' I will look into it, right now I have changed to feedly, but you never know I might like bloglovin' more. This is just sad with Google Reader going away!

    I'm trying out both Feedly and Bloglovin' ... Oh, the crippling indecision.

    Still trying to decide between Bloglovin' and Feedly. Not that I've done any actual research. I'm still in De-Nile.

    Hi! My name is Chris and I am a Catholic podcaster and blogger. I am participating in a blog linking/promotion award called Liebster and have nominated your blog.

    No, it isn't a "real" award, but, it is a way for you to find and connect with other smaller bloggers and to expand the reach of the Gospel message by doing so.

    You don't have to participate if it seems too much like a chain letter. However, I have added your blog to my RSS feeder because I have found it to be of value.

    To read more, check out my blog post at http://view.lifeonfire.org/2013/03/liebster-award-a-banding-of-small-blogs/ .

    God Bless,
    Chris
