Follow Lost In Lipstick on Bloglovin'

As I'm sure most of you are aware, Google Reader is going to disappear on the 1st July, which is actually less than three weeks away! To be honest, I've never been a fan of reading blogs through Google. In the past, I've always just had my favourite blogs bookmarked on my phone and I would read them from there. However, it became a little overwhelming and I couldn't keep up. I missed some of my favourite bloggers' posts as I didn't know when they had published a new post and I couldn't remember which ones I had read or not read. Quite a few months ago now, I discovered Bloglovin'. I now read all my favourite blogs through Bloglovin' as I have the app on my iPhone. I log on several times a day and new posts appear in my feed and it also marks posts as read or unread so I can keep up with which ones I haven't read.

Above is a screenshot of my homepage when I log into Bloglovin' on my laptop. The most recent blog posts appear at the top of my feed and on the left is a list of all the blogs I follow. As you can see, I am extremely behind on reading a lot of blogs! If you prefer, you can group these into categories but to be honest, I prefer it as a list of blogs. That way I can easily find a particular blog that I am looking for.

If you're new to Bloglovin', it's free to sign up and as part of the process, it will ask you if you would like to import your favourite blogs from Google Reader. If, however, you are already using Bloglovin' and you haven't imported your favourite blogs it's really easy. Firstly, you will need to visit http://www.bloglovin.com/import/reader. You will be greeted with the following page...

You will then be asked if you give permission for Bloglovin' to manage your data in Google Reader. Obviously, to import your favourite blogs, you will have to accept. Bloglovin' will then import the blogs you follow, this only takes a few minutes. And voila, you're done!

If you would like to follow Lost In Lipstick on Bloglovin', go to http://www.bloglovin.com/feed/blog/4005722 and click on follow, it's that easy. I'm off to catch up on my reading!
