How do I subscribe to someone's blog?
 
There was a recent thread with a link to her blog. Well, I clicked to her blog but it wanted me to create my own Google blog prior to subscribing to the one I was interested in. I don't know how to do that and I don't even want my own blog. Is that how all blogs work, or just this one? The link to her blog is

thanks for any help you offer

I went to the blog and I see what you mean, regarding the choices to subscribe. None of those options would work for me, either.

What I've done is set up a folder in my "Favorites" or wherever you bookmark sites on your computer's browser, and I've named the folder "Quilt Blogs to Read." It's best to save the links to the site directly rather than to a particular post, or else you will always get sent to that post and will have to click around to get newer ones.

So for example, I'd go to the link you mentioned above, and once there, I'd delete from the address line everything after .com/ and hit return, which will take you to the blog itself and not to a particular post. Then I'd bookmark it or save it to the folder for quilt blogs.

Every Saturday morning, I surf through my blogs. Of course the QB, I visit every day!

This was a very good explanation - thank you for posting. I never thought of doing this!
