I quit!Yep, stick me with a fork, I'm done!
After almost a year of click, click, clicking, I have canceled my account with Entrecard. So, to all you good people who actually stopped, dropped, read and commented - I thank you! I do hope you will continue to visit me and I promise I'll visit you as well. But, to those of you that just stopped, dropped and rolled on out of here - see ya!
What a load off my shoulders, not to mention my wrist. This will now free me up an hour and a half each and every day. This is time that will be much better spent visiting blogs and commenting. Look out, here I come!

I never did Entrecard, but have read the many comments about how disappointed bloggers are with it.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you have set yourself free! Another hour and a half? That's the equivalent of one and a half Law & Order eppies!
I'm soooo happy for you! *dun, dun*
FREEDOM ROCKS!
ReplyDeleteDuring that 1.5 hour, you can exercise, clean your house, file your paperwork, prepare a lavish meal.....
Sorry. I got carried away.
;-)
Maybe that extra time will be better spent reading my 500+ post. You know you want to. Now you can!
ReplyDeletei have also been thinking about dropping entrecard. i usually only visit my blogroll and rarely use entrecard. i haven't advertised on anyones blog for a long time now and probably won't. i much rather spend my time reading and commenting on all of my favorites than just dropping a card on a blog i don't care to read.
ReplyDeletehave an awesome day...hugz!
Hi MeMe - Well you know how I am - I didn't know what that was in the first place - but whatever it is - and the fact that you are no longer doing it - whatever it is - I'm thrilled you feel so free! I also like your comment about whoever has dropped, rolled out of here, see ya - I'm so with you on that! I no longer go to blogs of bloggers who don't visit/comment on mine! Let me tell you, a HUGE time saver!!!!
ReplyDeleteI never even heard of it. LOL!
ReplyDelete@ Quirky - Free at last, free at last!
ReplyDelete@ Geek girl - That's not exactly how I thought I spend this extra time I have now, but thanks for the suggestions.
@ Don - Are you offering up a challenge? Let me think about it, I'll get back to ya later.
@ PJ - Oh, I hear ya. I have met some new friends through EC; but, honestly, it was just too much time out of my day.
@ suZen - EC was great when I first started blogging for driving traffic to my blog. I'm with you - this will be a huge time saver.
@ Christiejolu - That's okay, go to entrecard.com if you are interested in learning more.
A wise choice. I found it was all so time-consuming for little in return. And half the time it would screw up technically. I think blogrolls are far more productive. Or dinner rolls.
ReplyDeleteWhat's an "Entrecard"? I thought I'd experienced every addiction there is, but must've missed that one. Anyway, kudos for kicking the habit - or whatever it was. (wink)

@ Dufus - Yeah, I should have bailed within the first 90 days, but I kinnda became addicted. Pass the rolls, please.
ReplyDelete@ Marvin - Oh, thanks. Entrcard is a bit addictive, but without reward. Go figure.
I'll add you to my list & check in ever so often, I like reading your blog.
ReplyDeleteEntrecard is a tribute to the poetry of Charles (Hungry Chuck) Bukowski whose epitaph reads: Time was made to be wasted. Or if it doesn't, it does now.
ReplyDeleteIf I didn't have Entrecard, I'd probably already be blind.
I hear you. I only drop about 30 cards per day, an many are on my blogroll anyway. I may be removing that little widget soon too. All the best. Tina
ReplyDeleteI do and I have left it before. I get bored and can't remember where everyone is so I go back to it. I really need to use a reader. Enjoy your freedom.
ReplyDelete@ Valdese Blogger - Thanks, I really apperciate that.
ReplyDelete@ Faustroll - You quote Bukowski? LOL! Really, I am a fan of his.
@ Tina - Thanks, Tina, I'll see you around.
@ Jen - LOL, yeah, a reader would be good. I'm wondering just how long it will be before I end up back there.
Glad you feel free!!
ReplyDeleteI agree and visiting blogs can really be fun.

@ Gayle - Yes, I do.
ReplyDelete@ Dorothy - Amen!
Thank you and either way...I'll be here for my daily read anyway. Don't forget your friends!
ReplyDeleteI really have no idea what this means.
ReplyDeleteBut hey, yeah for freedom! :D
@ Buggys - You are most welcome. I knew I could count on you.
ReplyDelete@ adrienzgirl - You are not alone.
I don't even know what it is, but congratulations! I'm truly happy for you, I guess.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads-up. One less mistake for me to have to make and learn from myself. Maybe I should just follow you around for the rest of my life.
