While I was checking out participating blogs of Friday Fill-Ins I found a service called Entrecard.
Basically, you put their widget on your sidebar. You can rent the spot next to it to other blogs to earn credits. But mainly, you can go to other member blogs, click on their widget and “drop your card”, and others can drop their cards on your blog.
You get credits for dropping your card and other cards being dropped at your blog, from which you can e.g. buy an advertising space on another blog.
It makes it easier to find new blogs to read, and hopefully someone will find this blog and visit regularly.
Sadly, most of the link exchanges are made up mostly of people filling their blog with pay-per-post, or trying to sell their own products,
What I’m interested in are blogs that give me a view of someone’s life, a unique way to get to know the writer, to glean glimpses of what makes them tick. I do like some medical blogs, but otherwise I prefer personal blogs over themed ones.
I’ve tried to blog on Livejournal a few times, because I love the way communication there works via comments – but then I find most journals there are themed, but maybe that’s because I’ve mostly followed different fandoms on LJ.
I do want to use this blog however, and I love the new design 
So I have to find some other ways to find online friends I guess. Entrecard is nice in that I can click through blogs through the adverts, and I like that I can look at my inbox and drop cards for everyone who dropped their card on mine.
I definitely like it so far, and I’ve already found some great blogs through it.
