Technical updates, general information and a thank you!

Hello readers!

I just wanted to pop in with a few updates and questions.

First, I know that Google is retiring Google Friend Connect. This won't affect indivuals who have blogger sites but those without blogger sites will be affected. I do have a subscribe by email widget on my site, but I'm wondering what other link up widgets do you all prefer to subscribe by?

Also, I'd like to say a big hello and thank you to all my new followers. I believed I've gained about 5 followers this week, bringing my total to 60. When I reach 75 followers I will hold a giveaway. This leads me to another question, what would you like to see as a prize for a giveaway?

Happy Friday! It's been one of those long weeks this week. What are your reading plans for the weekend? I'm hoping to finish two books
