GFC and Following

Hi blog friends! I just wanted to write a quick post letting you know about the changes coming to Blogger tomorrow.

(That's really soon.)

You've probably heard by now that Google Friend Connect is going away. Google is no longer supporting the service. Blogger-based blogs will now have Following instead, which will function the same and be maintained by Blogger itself.

The big change is for non-Blogger blogs, which have been using GFC. To continue to follow those blogs, add them to you reader, follow the RSS feed, or follow on Bloglovin' if they are signed up there.

There was surprisingly little information available about this issue from Google or Blogger, but for a good post on the switch, go here.

This really shouldn't affect my readers, but I just wanted to give you all a heads up.

P.S. Happy leap day!
