Finding Futures

I’m sure we’ve all seen the numerous tweets, posts and everything else about Google Reader dying a death come July. I’m sure plenty of you have also been worrying about GFC and although nothing seems to have been confirmed as yet, I thought it would be a good time to tell you where else on the web you can find me/Futures.
I apologise in advance if you have seen an influx of these posts today  – I know I have! All of my profiles will be linked to in the titles.
Bloglovin’
What seems to be the new reader of choice. Never been a big fan of this, but I suppose things can change over time – I’ll be giving it a go!
Hellocotton
Not one of my favourites as the follow button tends to mess up for me when trying to follow a blog, however it is a great way to find new blogs and keep up with all of your old ones.
I really need to start using this a little more! It automatically posts my blog posts but my actual interaction is poor. Maybe it is time to spend a little more time on there?
 
I’m on Twitter quite a lot – all posts automatically post there and I do tweet A LOT too.
I haven’t really got round to using this as a blogging tool yet, but its there if you want to pop along.
 
Personal G+/Blog G+
I don’t understand G+ and I don’t really like it but I have both a personal page and a blog page – do you understand it? Care to give me a few tips?
I recently deleted most of my boards and wanted to start afresh. I used to be addicted, then drifted away. Now it seems to be drawing me back in again…
 
I have also found out about another reader called Feedly which is much like Google Reader – I have signed up to see if it makes blog reading as simple and as plain sailing as Google Reader did. I used this blog post by The Young and The Relentless to start the ball rolling.
What do you think of all these goings on? Are you now migrating to other sites to read blogs? Let me know!
I don’t normally condone lots of links in the comments either, but if you want me to follow you somewhere, please do leave the link in the comments below 🙂

  1. I was never a fan of bloglovin' before, because I didn't realize that you could import all the blogs you follow from Google reader, and now that I've done that- I'm sold! It's letting me reconnect with blogs I forgot were awesome!

    1. Hehe – I never knew you could do it too!x

  2. I'm sticking with bloglovin, i'm kinda over google wanting to take over everything on the internet.

  3. I'm visiting from Aloha Friday. Glad to connect. Please join me on my Friday Flash Blog on The Jenny Evolution (www.thejennyevolution.com) as well and share your favorite post of the week. Happy Friday 🙂

  4. I'm going to be creating a post about G+ which will go live either Sunday or Monday. So, stop by my blog: http://penpaperpad.com. Also, I'm going to try Feedly, and I've heard of The Old Reader, but I'm not that familiar with either one.

    I found you via Friday Blog Hop. Aloha!
