  Just curious why my public followers count jumped from 226 to 616? Are you now Twitter followers, as opposed to just blog followers?

  Can you tell us exactly where you’re seeing the count jump?

  On my blog (www.sharilopatin.com). The “subscribe” widget. You can make your follower count public (i.e. “Join 220 other followers”). That’s where the jump happened, on that public number.

  Thanks!

  Yes, it looks like we are now including your Twitter followers in the overall count.
