Entrecard: So The Verdict Is In

Published by lilysgramma at 6:48 pm under Miscellaneous Edit This

If you are a Today.com blogger, you probably already know that Entrecard will be banned from Today blogs as of sometime next week.  If you are NOT a today blogger, now you know.  Please note that I will be removing my Entrecard widget on Friday, April 3rd.  Please put me in your blog roll, if you would like to be added to mine, please leave a comment here and I will happily add you.  I will still be dropping cards from my other blog .  It’s really sad because I have found so many wonderful blogs that I really enjoy visiting (and will still visit after I remove my widget), but now, the people who drop on me from Entrecard won’t find my, or other Today blogs in this way.  I suppose in some ways it’s a good thing because we’ll know that the visitors we get are actually reading our posts and not just dropping a card, on the other hand, unless we have a great page rank, we will be lost in the thousands of blogs out there in the blogosphere.

I do understand Today’s point of view, but it is still a shame that they could’nt come up with some sort of compormise with Entrecard.  Oh well.   Hope to see you around!  :)

    I’ve already removed my EC and I feel like I’ve lost my commenting rhythm. It’s challenging to keep up with other blogs now. I think you are really cool and always enjoy reading both your blogs and hope we can stay in touch. I appreciate how supportive you have been of my blog, especially considering I’m new and still finding my way around the blogosphere. May God bless you and your family. Have a great Sunday!

    Sounds like a big power struggle to me - who can be more successful & we don’t need you. Well, I happen to like my Entrecard widget and I am not too happy about having to remove it. It gave me an easy resource to find other people’s blogs out there. I did enjoy the extra drops that I was getting, but not as much as reading other peoples news and thoughts. Do not be surprised to hear from me soon with news of a new blog site. This particular blog, which is my first and only, has left me very disappointed and with a very negative view on blog writing. It started out as something fun for me to do and a creative outlet, but things have changed. Let me just say, “It’s you, not me Today.com”

    I also enjoy your blog and I will be spending the next couple of days checking my drop box and adding sites to my blog roll. I hope I don’t forget anyone!
