Alison Can Read Feature & Follow
The Feature and Follow is hosted by two hosts Parajunkee of Parajunkee’s View and Alison of Alison Can Read. Each host will have their own Feature Blog and this way it’ll allow us to show off more new blogs.
I would love for you to follow me by Bloglovin
Post a comment below so I can follow you back.
This is worth sharing. Perhaps you agree.
After my initial experience with this new (to me) iPhone/iPad App, I thought I would share what I’ve learned.
First of all if you are unfamiliar with the Bloglovin’ service I would describe it as website that helps you find and follow great blogs. With the Apps, I am an Apple lover so please forgive my bias, I found it to be very convenient and fun way to get caught up inside the blogosphere. My caveat to this is a certain reticence to use Apps over my preference for Safari or Google Chrome on the web. I just feel that too many Apps are lacking to such a degree that it isn’t worth the bother. Know what I mean?
Anyway, here’s what I found: There are four master pages titled My Feed, Popular, Search and Me
PLUSSES
A+, this really doesn’t seem like an App, it has a web-like feel to it.
A+, even better – there is a web option that allows you to view the blogs on the web!
B+, there is a handy menu button which drops down to reveal all your favorite blogs in My Feed.
B+, I like the handy share tab there too.
B+, the popular posts offer a terrific way of finding good blogs when you are pressed for time.
B+, great images.
C+, searching for blogs is clean, without advertisements and extraneous distractions from what you really want, to read blog articles.
C+, as an added plus the ‘Me’ page allows you to create your own blog.
NOT SO PLUSSES
C-, there is a feedback link to get input from users, though the response to users seems to be less than ideal
C-, some of ‘features’ are a little tricky to use and the instructions are not as ‘simple’ as I’d like.
As an avid supporter of WordPress for all the reasons you might imagine, I would say Bloglovin’ Apps are in the category of the “next best thing” and rate them as “recommended”.
Happy Blogging!
This is offered out of respect for the sacrifice of others. Best to all on Memorial Day
What do you think about the message of Tomorrowland?
It took Ex Machina for me to break a hiatus. While it entertains as well as it provokes thought and dialogue, this film strikes that delicate balance which every great science fiction seeks to achieve.
Having read the first four Leonid McGill Mysteries; All I Did Was Shoot My Man, When the Thrill is Gone, Known to Evil, and The Long Fall, I was excited to see this new entry in print.
If you aren’t familiar with New York City Private Detective McGill or haven’t tried any of Mosley’s 49 works, you are in for a treat. While his genre repertoire tends towards the hard-boiled, there are plenty of diverse offerings for the casual reader.
