When my Twitter feed exploded with the news that Google Reader was shutting down with the view of GFC possibly following suit, it didn't really bother me. Yes I would be sad to see GFC leave. Its been with me from the start and it has taken me time to build a collective number of followers, but its not the be all and end all. So in light of the current situation I wanted to take the opportunity to remind you guys that there are several other ways to follow my blog so feel free to take your pick from the bunch above!
