I'm Lovin' Bloglovin'

Picture 7
Months ago someone from bloglovin.com sent me an email announcing the service. Why on earth did I wait so long to make use of this app? I've grown so tired of my many RSS readers. They just take the life out of every post. (Am I the only one who thinks so?)

Bloglovin' lets me see your site and get a bit from each post and - from the main screen - save a post to go back and read. This way I can clear off that screen to see new posts without forgetting which ones I wanted to go back to for further reading. Smart. I'm just too visual for a traditional reader. All that lifeless text without a mental picture of your blog. It's a personal thing, but I'm not a fan of any reader I've ever used except (apparently now) this one.

Anyhoo, check out the site. And please, follow my blog with bloglovin´ to see what all the fuss is about. I'm no where near done completing my list of blogs to follow. So if I've missed yours, I hope to be adding it soon.

iPhone users: it even looks & works great on our phones. I created a shortcut to my account and put it on my main screen as a shortcut. Now I don't even have to log in. It's right there with all my fave blogs. *sigh* I'm very, very happy.

What the beautiful people are saying...

Ok I will check out the site!
Thanks for the info:)

Happy Easter!

Venti - is this better than then app that goes on the side of the actual blog? from blogger? I really love that one.

Frankie - I just looked at the app - do you have to manually load your wa tched blogs one by one?

is there no way to import them from Google reader?

I'm diggin' it sister. I'm diggin' it ;)

Joni, Hmmmm... that's a good question. I haven't had time to poke to much into that. I'll shoot you a note if it lets me.

i'll give it a shot- google reader sucks!

thx!

I'm checking it out right now. This already sounds like a better way to follow your blog ( and my other faves )- thanks for letting me know.

Thanks for letting me know about Bloglovin'. With all the stuff in the web, I can't keep up!
