so damned confused

Okay, so apparently, Google Friends Connect will be closing down.

First off, why?

Second....why?

I took a look at their site and it appears that any blog site that is not Blogger based will lose GFC, or, at least, that is how I read it. it also looks like they are using this to try and force the thousands, if not millions, of blogs out there to promote their crappy Google+ dying idea. Pretty sad it you ask me. I have Google+. Haven't looked at it since I joined last year...that is how important and interesting it is.

I have looked at a couple other blog follower sites, like Bloglovin', but there are just so many hoops to jump through and are just too complicated. At least for me...but I haven't had much coffee this morning either.

So, there you go. If, on 1 March, I disappear, or you disappear for that matter, we will find each other again. We will find a way. We will overcome.

Peace, Love and (why fix it if it ain't freaking broke??) Zombies \IiiI

It's not terrible, just annoying. There is also the rumor that, in the future, GFC might go away for Blogger, too. They really want Google+ to workout, but I'm not seeing it.

We'll adjust, won't we? We've doing it forever. But that doesn't mean that we won't bitch about it ;-)

I think you will overcome. I think it's people with Wordpress and Typepad (for example) that lose the GFC. But Blogger blogs will continue to have GFC...dont' quote me though. I haven't even been to the website, I'm going through what I heard via the blog grapevine.

I heard about this too & I'm not liking it either. Honestly, I've only been on G+ like 6x cause it's way boring. The only cool thing about it is it's group video chat.
