Linky Blog Hop!

Well, friends, the time has come.  It's time to start dealing with the loss of our beloved Google Friend Connect.  All you sweet facebook fans were so nice to come over and "follow" me here so that I could see those lovely triple-digits before Google makes the change.  But, alas, our connection won't last forever, UNLESS you all follow me over to Linky Followers and keep the party going! :)

So, in the spirit of "re-connecting" I'd love for you to join me in this Linky Followers blog hop!  Here's the lowdown (courtesy of Tattered & Inked - thanks, Kelsey!)

GOOGLE FRIEND CONNECT

will be discontinued on Feb 29 for any one that is not with blogspot, and rumor has it that it is being completely phased out for everyone soon

BUT

There is a NEW awesome tool–Linky Followers

It has so many amazing features (that GFC never had). If you have not signed up you should. (And you can have GFC and Linky together). You will LOVE the new features!!! I'm digging' 'em :

In honor of the new Linky Follower craze, Cheri from It's So Very Cheri is hosting a LINKY FOLLOWER PARTY HOP.

Here are the RULES:

 

1. you MUST have the LINKY FOLLOWERS tool on your site to participate.

If you see that your link has been deleted you need to add the LINKY FOLLOWER tool to your site and then come back over and re-enter your link
{You can have both the LINKY FOLLOWERS & GFC on your site but you must have the LINKY FOLLOWERS toolto participate in this party hop.}

2. You MUST follow the person who has the party on their site as a thank you.

3. Just add your blog button to the LINKY PARTY below.

4.Then grab the BLOG HOP code

5. Then you follow other bloggers–(as many as you want)

You will find the code right under the Linky Party where it says CLICK HERE TO ENTER–just under that it says: WHAT IS A BLOG HOP? GET THE CODE HERE. Click on GET THE CODE HERE and enter it into a post on your site. You can grab info from my post if it helps you with your post.

–leave each one of the blogs that you follow a comment letting them know you are following them and ask them to follow you back.

If you want to add the BLOG HOP to your own site you will get lots of new followers–(see rule #2)

So there you have it!  I hope you'll all take a few minutes to reconnect with me using Linky Followers and then join me in this fun blog hop (there are some great blogs to be found this way!)  I will be leaving up my Google Friend Connect as long as they let me, but when it's gone, it's gone...and I would hate to lose contact with any one of you!)

Now, start hoppin'!
