I used to use Google Reader all the time to keep up with the latest blog posts and articles from my favorite websites. It was a fabulous RSS reader that let me organize things and easily catch up on various interests from comic books to affiliate marketing. And then Google put its Reader out to pasture. Sniff.
I’m currently using Feedly, but don’t totally love it. It’s what I use for work now to keep on top of the latest industry news and it’s slick and all that, but it’s getting tough to keep an eye on work and all my blog friends. Recently every blogger and their mother seems to be using Bloglovin. So I signed up.
I haven’t had the chance to really dive in yet, but it seems to be a nice, robust, yet more mainstream-type of Reader. It lets me not just have a feed of blog posts based upon who I’m following, but it can also list the most popular, as well as introduce me to all-new blogs.
Here’s a look at what My Feed currently looks like:
I’ll report back soon after I’ve gotten more familiar with Bloglovin. Let me know what you guys think in the comments section below! I’d love to hear what you like or hate about this blogging network/reader. There’s even an app to make it easy to read on the go, so I’ll be sure to try that too!
im not a big fan of bloglovin- i dont understand it too much! pls follow me back! !love your blog… http://www.meandbella.com
i am now following you on blog lovin!:) love your blog!
I love Bloglovin! It makes it so easy to keep up with all my favorite blogs and works great on my tablet too!
I love Bloglovin’ even though I follow too many blogs to read all of them! I honestly NEVER used RSS or Google Reader. I have found if I really like a blog I will subscribe to their emails so I never miss a post.
I’ve been using Bloglovin for a few months – I love it!
I follow WAY too many blogs LOL – but with BL, I can go to “oldest unread” and try to keep up.
Added you on Bloglovin’ – username = toddlovessweeps
I’m following you now, just went there
I am following you on bloglovin. I do not know exactly how it works, but sometimes it does help my traffic!
thanks,
Mitch
P.S. I just became your Bloglovin Follower #37!
I felt sick when I first learned that Google Reader was going “Bye Bye.” Sick and lost! I honestly can’t remember a time BEFORE Google Reader and I kept foolishly hoping that somehow they would change their minds???
I’d never even heard of most of the “alternatives” – except for Bloglovin (thanks mostly to blog giveaways that offer a giveaway for Following on BL) – but I still didn’t understand how to use it or even that it was a READER!
I’m still a slow learning novice – but at least I’m getting used to it – and after all, familiarity DOES breed comfort…. Thanks for the opportunity to vent… and learn a little too.
I’m not currently following you but I will follow now.
Thanks for the ‘reminder’. I am following you now.
Mm it looks nice! Maybe I’ll go check it out 🙂
Say, Andrew – why don’t you add a “follow me on Blogstalkin’…I mean Bloglovin’ to your giveaway forms?
Great idea, Sandy. I’ll do that in the next giveaway! (Assuming I remember…) Thanks!
Of course I am following you on Bloglovin’. Rather closely, in fact. Some would consider that I am STALKING you on Bloglovin’.
Im following you now
I am new Bloglovin and I haven’t dive din it either. Thank you for letting us know we can follow you on that site too. Happy New and Prosperous Year! 🙂
I don’t even know what’s bloglovin, lets see
