This is just a quick reminder to those who might not have given it a thought.
When I am wandering the blogs and see great comments I click on who left those comments. I don’t do that just to see a larger version of a pretty face, or to read a bio, I do it to find the website, their blog. I rarely find a blog and thus miss out on following that person.
So PLEASE:
- go to your Gravatar.com,
- your profile, then web sites
- and add your blog site
- You can even add your facebook and Twitter or whatever, but PLEASE add your blog site.
Thank you!

I’ve done it now Ronovan – I never realised that it was only connected to my Google account. I see that all the gravatars in my comments have totally disappeared since yesterday though – no idea what’s happening with that.

about.me is the best I’ve found and it also automatically updates your posts.

Yeah, I have that on my page, but I can’t get to their page to get to the about.me until I know who they are to get there to. 🙂

I have that too. If you click the pictures and the Gravatar does not have your blog link, it is useless. And you’re right, it is easy to find their blogs when their gravatars are updated.

And the first thing I see when I visit your site are evil delicious foods?!?! And I still followed you? A man and his stomach. It’s out in front and he must follow where it leads.

Hahaha, thanks for the blog follow. And it’s not all about food. It’s about my journey as a cancer survivor.

It’s amazing what blogs include. Mine is about writing as a therapy for dealing with Fibromyalgia and Amnesia. I write so I won’t forget or I can at least come back to it. Retro and Short term Amnesia can be a bummer, especially combined with the Chronic Pain and Fatigue of Fibro.
And awesome about the survivor! (Now that I finished talking about me.)

Don’t stress the words at first. Just get the ideas down. The words can be tweaked in editing. My words aren’t always good the first time either. Oh, no! haha.

And here I thought it was just to like at my pretty face! Oh well…I am slowly weaning my Cher Shares to a blogspot at Tournesol dans un jardin. This is a good reminder to add that blog to my Gravatar profile. Thanks!

Oh my goodness. I clicked and wow, look at that gorgeous hair! And here I have been following people for their blogs. I need to start looking at their photos. Oh no! Don’t tell anyone I said that or they will stop following me once they look at my photo.
