Tyra's Garden is a small garden on the island of Resarö situated in the inner part of the archipelago near the small town Vaxholm, outside Stockholm. Tyra's Garden is mostly an ornamental vegetable garden, my potager. But flowers are of course an important ingredience, for beauty and pollination. The climate in these parts is quite demanding as the northerly winds can be strong and cold. THIS BLOG 'Tyra's Garden' is not entirely a gardenblog it contains much more.

FOLLOW FELLOW problems?

...
I'm confused




Now I follow myself! It doesn't feel good at all :-)



The last week I've had problems with my follow list. My Garden friends and readers. I have lost 9 friends and readers over one night and today when blogger had change the ‘follow feature’ I signed in….big mistake! I added my self! Now I cannot get rid of myself.
Does anyone have any ideas, where do I stop follow?

To my lost friends, I miss you!

TYRA

Ideas? I need a little help from my friends ;-)

Ooops! I'm wondering whether thats happened to me too. I lost 3 of my friends on the Follow list overnight :( I kept thinking that maybe they were finding my posts too boring lately :( :(
About following yourself ... I wish someone would invent something like that for my children! Follow themselves around to pick up everything they leave scattered all around the house ;)
Sorry Tyra, not a clue how to help you.

Hi Tyra,

I 'lost' 9 overnight too :(

I'm glad I read your post before taking the sign in option.

Looks like Blogger have 'improved' things again!

TYRA Hallsénius Lindhe said...

OH Yeah! I got rid of my self finally. I went in under FOLLOW ,settings and there I could say don't follow this women that obviously was a bit confused today!

Tyra

Hannele på Hisingen said...

jag vet inte hur det funkar, alla är ju inte blogspottare..

VP said...

PS my 9 included you - I just thought you'd taken me out because you can see me in Blotanical

TYRA Hallsénius Lindhe said...

Now I'm back :-) on your list VP! First I was gone and then when I added myself it said that I was following anonymously (not showing) so I had to change that setting.

Vad ären bloggspottare Hannele?

Yolanda Elizabet Heuzen said...

LOL, your post about following yourself cracked me up, Tyra. You and your shadow, eh? ;-)And it explains why I suddenly lost 3 followers overnight too. Blogger!!!!

Chandramouli S said...

And I lost 2 overnight :( Let's hope it resolves itself...

Anette said...

Något strul har det varit de senaste dagarn både med kommentarer och "followers", men jag tror att jag fortfarande är med på din "trogna lista"....
Såg att "någon" ska vara med i Allers trädgård nästa gång. Kul! /Anette

(Tyra, du är blogsspottare:

TYRA Hallsénius Lindhe said...

Hej Anette, det var skönt att höra :-). Det är ju som Sunita sa i början man undrar ju om man gör nåt tokigt! Men eftersom att det har hänt så många så är det 'bara' tekniskt fel.

Ja den 19:e säger dom, då kommer reportaget i Allers Trädgård. Det skall bli kul för att den här gången står jag för alla bilderna.hihi

Tyra

Hannele på Hisingen said...

Grattis, egna bilder, kul.

tina said...

This feature is frustrating to me, so I removed it from my blog. I was wondering why folks were following themselves when I saw it recently. I am glad you removed yourself. Thank you VERY much for your wonderful comment this morning. hugs, tina

Eva Linnea said...

Jag kollade att jag fortfarande låg med i din lista. Puh! Jag är inte så förtjust i att "de" går in och ändrar så där utan att fråga .....
Kram Eva Linnea (Häxor & Änglar)

Helen/patientgardener said...

Hi Tyra, I wish I could help you but it seems you have it under control;) These gadgets, widgets, feeds, whatever are getting out of control.

Ruben said...

Men Tyra då, att inte veta vad en bloggspottare är, och du som till och med är dubbel blogspottare.
Nu får du ta och spotta upp dig!!! ;-) /Ruben

joey said...

I'm most impressed with your tech skills and beautiful site, Tyra. I'm a fearful wimp and time crunched when it comes to blog changes. Recently added 'follow list' but wondering if I should keep it or not ... hum!

Michelle said...

Yup, I lost 3 followers overnight also! You would think blogger would give us a little advance notice when they mess with these things.

IlonaGarden said...

I had the same worry as everyone else and it really was an unpleasant surprise. I had to laugh at your comment on fixing the confused "follower" :)

Rune Eide said...

Det er ikke sikkert du vil like mitt forslag, men likevel: Stryk hele "Follow"-systemet. Det fører bare til mer unødvendig stress og konkurranse om "hvem som har flest". Jeg har bevisst latt være og har også fjernet visningen av antall "treff". Vi blogger for å blogge - ikke for å konkurrere i hvem som har flest av et eller annet.

PS Tusen takk for din egen veldig hyggelige kommentar!

HelenJ said...

Jag upptäckte att jag hade tappat en följare i morse - men nu i eftermiddag hade jag fått två till istället! Men jag är inte själv med i den listan - tack och lov! =)

Jag hoppas de har fått ordning på kommenteringsfunktionen nu - det har varit himla mycket strul med den senaste tiden. Det är ju väldigt ofta man har åsikter om vad andra skriver - och så jobbigt då att inte få dela med sig av dem! =)

garden girl said...

I'm glad you were able to figure it out Tyra. It seems every time Blogger tries to make something better, it gets worse first.

Gail said...

Hi...I don't use followers widget, but I do have a fantastic bookmark add on where all of the blogs I read are listed...including you! it's on my homepage not my blogpage! Take care!

julia said...

Hi Tyra, I have returned to the mousehole...

Bay Area Tendrils said...

Tyra,
I, too, noticed the vanishing act of some followers. While the new format of google's FOLLOW/CONNECT gadget simply changed overnight, adding to the confusion. Thank You! for posting this - the feedback helps to light up the atmosphere of the gardening blogosphere.
