Google Friend Connect

On my sidebar is a gadget for Followers. It’s a box dedicated for Google Friend Connect. Without even promoting it or asking for it, I now see that this blog has 36 followers:

GFC

How did this happen?

Don’t get me wrong, I am very thankful to all who have connected with me. So now I want to know about Google Friend Connect.

What is it? How does it work? How is it good for us bloggers?

I will research on this and will potentially share my findings on here, but if anyone could offer any information, I’d appreciate it.

I was trying to reach out to my GFC followers but not all have links listed… anyway… thanks again everyone!

I'm one of your follower .. I don't know either what GFC can give but i'm happy also everytime one blogger will subscribed on my blog. Anyway, its more easier for blogger to access your site or any updates if they are connected in your GFC.

I think the reason why you got followers in GFC is that they like your blog and they want to be updated on your new posts.

Another is that if they are blog owners, they are expecting that you will reciprocate and will follow them back, some of your followers whose intention is like this will unfollow you if you don't follow them back.

I think those are the two reasons why you get followers without asking them to follow you.

i think following you in GFC will update them of your posts and they can always check your blog.
