Hello there. It’s just a very quick post today to let any of you know who DO NOT use Blogger that Google will be retiring Google Friend Connect from 1 March 2012. This means that if you use Typepad, WordPress or any other blogging platform and you currently have a Google Follow Me button then it is not going to work after that date.
I’ve only just found out from Hilary of Craft Blog UK. You can read her post by visiting here. It seems they want to get you to use the new Google+ Hang Out and Circles to keep in touch and build a community there. Anyhow, I’m following Hilary’s lead and have joined Bloglovin’. I’m not too sure how many blogs I follow are on there already. One thing for sure is that there are probably a whole host of wonderful crafty blogs waiting to be discovered. So if you’re already on Bloglovin’ why not join me on there.

Thank you for letting us know, Ruby. I will have a look at Bloglovin.
