Just a quick headsup for bloggers that are using a platform other than Blogger.
If you are currently using Google Friend Connect, don’t forget that as of March 1, 2012, GFC is being retired except for blogger blogs.
Google Friend Connect—Friend Connect allows webmasters to add social features to their sites by embedding a few snippets of code. We’re retiring the service for all non-Blogger sites on March 1, 2012. We encourage affected sites to create a Google+ page and place a Google+ badge on their site so they can bring their community of followers to Google+ and use new features like Circles and Hangouts to keep in touch.

Not sure at this stage whether I will replace GFC with something else at this stage or not, will have to give it some further thought at this stage.
Cheers
