Follow your favorite blogs
10. září 2008
Some people dream of being a rock star, while others just want a few discerning souls to become avid readers of their blogs. Both are noble pursuits, but with some
good pictures
, and a witty turn of phrase or two, building a Blogger fan-base may be a more attainable dream.
At Blogger we're passionate about helping communities form around blogs. To further that goal, we've introduced a
new feature
that lets you easily follow your favorite blogs and tell the world that you’re a fan. To follow a blog with the Followers' Gadget, simply click the “Follow This Blog” link. You can show your support for the blog by following it right from your Blogger Dashboard or in Google Reader.
Following isn't just for bloggers, it's also designed to make it easier for readers to keep tabs on their favorite blogs. Maybe you're following a
wedding blog for tips
, have
a thing for plush toys
, or perhaps you want to keep track of
Google's university bus tour
.
In addition, you can easily check out what blogs other fans are writing and following - you might even find another blog you’ll want to add to your reading list. And by the way, you can follow any blog, even if it isn't hosted on Blogger or doesn't have the Followers gadget. Just go to your Reading List in your
Blogger Dashboard
, click the “Add” button, and type in the blog’s URL. And you can even import existing subscriptions from
Google Reader
.
This feature is currently only available in English, but we plan to make it available in more languages soon. We’re also in the process of integrating with
Google Friend Connect
to add even more engaging social features to Blogger.
So start following. We hope you become a fan.
