Following Her Own Blog!

While fooling around on blogger, I noticed that you can follow your own blog. It seems kind of ridiculous, and because I do ridiculous things, I HAD to do it.

These were my 5 lonely followers. Notice that little green space that wanted to be occupied by someone's face/picture.

Being a bored little girl, I decided to click follow. I followed all the steps you take when you follow any blog on blogger. And came to the decision that I would publicly follow my own blog. I expected blogger to tell me something along the lines of what Facebook told me when I tried to block myself: "you can't follow yourself".

Much to my surprise, that wasn't the case. It let me follow myself.

I like feeling important to myself. I tried this on twitter too, it told me I can't follow myself. Which kind of sucks, but whatever, I can just read my tweets on my blog if I really need to.

I'm still working on blocking myself on Facebook.

How odd. I didn't know you could do that.

Rox and I totally follow ourselves. I had a little moment very, very similar to your own. Then I just rationalized that Rox is following me and I'm following Rox. And that since we have two blogs, that following them was allowed.

(But really, I do ridiculous too..)
