Google Friend Disconnect

Apologies in advance fellow bloggers.

If I am registered as following your blog via Google Friend Connect I will now be unsubscribing.

This is not reflect on you, well most of you, but GFC has run its course with me. I subscribe to most blogs in an RSS readers and am cutting the wastage.

As for my own GFC app, on the left hand side, I'm yet to decide.

Jon I was using firebug recently and the load time for my blogs is terrible-top of the list is the friends connect widget.

I was thinking of removing mine, but I know some folk like them?

Any views?

It is a good way of getting more followers & showing off your numbers - which in your case I recall to be very high.

Sure it does take a little juice out of a computer but to be honest photos, other widgets and page layouts are probably more culpable for slow loading speeds.

That said, we're reaching the edge of my technical knowledge!

I have never used GFC. Most of the blogs I subscribe to are also via RSS feeders. I've dabbled, but nothing else seems to stick.
