All About Squidoo

This month I’ve made, as usual, quite a few squidoo lenses. Right now I’m up to 258 lenses, visited 16,140 times in the last 7 days. Let me start with a lens that was inspired by a squidu forumthread: My newest lenses I made two lenses devoted to desk calendars: Spiritual and religious desk Calendars 2010 and the more general: Desk Calendars . Devoted to a book that is a classic in the Theosophical World: Man The Measure Of All Things . Book reviews never get much traffic for me, but I can’t avoid reviewing a book when it’s good enough to blog about. ... Read Full Story

This is the place where I've tried to collect all the facts and links for all the projects run by Giant Squid Organizers and Greeters in the past. And, in a way, this lens is my own way to say thank you to those who helped me on my own way to become a Giant Squid, 100 Club member, a Greeter and SquidAngel. Some of the Organizers and Greeters active then are now retired from this volunteering duty but they will always be those I'll remain grateful - for their dedication, their perservance and imagination. And their ever emerging desire to hep others. Not ... Read Full Story

Thanking Squidster an old time squidangel who finally agreed to be interviewed. Why are you a squidoo lensmaster? Originally I was attracted to the ease with which anyone can quickly assemble a web page. Okay, the idea of shared revenue was a strong motivator as well. I heard about it in one of the IM forums and thought I’ll give it a try. My very first payday with only a handful of lenses yielded over $11 which I thought was very promising. Unfortunately, the financial trend did not quite pan out as planned, but nowadays I can honestly say I’m primarily “in it” for ... Read Full Story

Joan4 is one of those lensmasters that just can’t make you stop smiling. It’s not for nothing that a lens has already been made in her honor She’s a giant squid top 100 member, a rocket mom and one of the new squidangels. Generous as she is, she thanks an amazing amount of lensmasters at the bottom… And of course she can’t limit herself to just answering my questions. She started out her e-mail to me with: What fun!! I am flattered! I hope I have answered these questions appropriately. Feel free to edit, etc. I just had fun with the questions! my only ... Read Full Story

While kiwisoutback ’s lensmasters handle suggests a New Zealand origin, he tells me one of his niches is road trips in the USA. Looking for answers to this conundrum, I checked out his lensography and found out he’s married to one of our greenest lensmasters: TheGreenerMe [edit]Kiwisouthback has since explained on his lensography that he chose the kiwi years ago as a handle on ebay, just because it was a unique animal. No regional associations whatsoever. Of course it probably made a difference that he and his wife are both environmentally conscious though…[/edit] Why are you a squidoo lensmaster? I began using Squidoo to ... Read Full Story
