Thank you Entrecard for the few years of great service. It was a great way for bloggers to get to know each other. I discovered many great sites and have befriended quite a few people through Entrecard. So my thank you is sincere.
But things have changed.
I get it. Entrecard’s creator planned this to be a money maker from the start. I don’t blame him one bit. I knew that sooner or later, some form of monetizing would come forth, and it has. Unfortunately, it now sucks big time! In the past few days I have been canceling ads that are inappropriate for or irrelevant to my blog. It has become a pain rather than a pleasure.
With a tear in my eye, I say goodbye to Entrecard. It was great while it lasted.
Sorry to see you go.I will still continue to follow your blog.

Thanks, Mike!
If they ever change it closer to how it used to be, I'll rejoin Entrecard. But for now, I'm out.
There's room for someone to step in and do something similar for the blogworld.
Good for you! It's a big turn off for me when being all about the money takes over. I see it more often than I care to.

It's too bad. I do think Entrecard could have figured out some other way of making money without destroying the funky little economy they originally created. It was a great original idea, and now they've wrecked it.

I arrived at the same conclusion some time ago. Entrecard sucked all the fun out of blogging for me. Anyway, you've still got loyal followers visiting as a result of being over there. And then there's me! :0)

Oh yeah, I ditched EC awhile back too. Met a lot of great friends through it but it was time to move on.

You're not a follower. You're a leader!
I'd give you a little winky emoticon, but it feels kinda gay.
(Not that there's anything wrong with that!)
Casey~
Yeah, time to move on.
But sometimes it's good to go back, like returning to your blog the other day. I missed you! It was good to see you, Jamie and the kids are doing well!
