I feel bad when I can't find someone's blog on Google+- so having the Blogger profile come up would certainly help. Thanks for posting these! :) <br />~JessDMShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04202502753961748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7362528912516506170.post-34045827048096244972014-03-16T03:31:05.053+10:002014-03-16T03:31:05.053+10:00I so agree with all of these.

I always go to the "about" tab immediately, and go right to the bottom to find the links to blogs.

Worse than that is some Wordpress blogs where I have to prove who I am before I can leave a comment. Lots of work just to leave a comment. This month's hop looks most interesting. Hope I can join in.J.L.
