We’re bringing you more
Wow! Squidoo is such an exciting place to be right now. Thousands of new lenses are being built every week and the forum is full of new faces (er, usernames?) Lensmasters are using blogs to promote their new creations, running special projects to generate interest, and bringing in their friends and family to share in the Squidoo experience. I’m more pumped now than ever! (And you’ve seen how I get after a few cups of coffee…)
If this wasn’t cool enough, the SquidStaff and special lensmaster teams are working every day to bring you more, more, more! Here are three ways we’re giving you more this week:
More Categories!
You asked, we answered. There are now 10 brand spanking new categories to fill up with new and existing lenses:
* Books
* About me (for resume lenses, SquidWho lenses about you, signpost lenses, lensographies, whatever)
* Humor (for any funny ha-has, novelty lenses, joke lenses, etc)
* Home & Garden
* Religion & Spirituality
* Work at Home (this could be a really interesting category, if done right)
* Green Living
* Pop Culture & Celebs (because Paris Hilton told Megan she was sick of being categorized in “Entertainment”)
* Squidoo How To (for all your Answer Deck lenses, SquidTips, that kind of thing)
* Duels (just a fun experiment. You can swap your MonkeyBrain lenses over, or any poll or opinion lenses you have).
How much fun will YOU have filling these up?
More info off Squidoo!
SquidU isn’t the only place to talk about Squidoo. Between MySpace, Facebook, Lensroll.com, and others, lensmasters are taking their lenses off Squidoo to put them in front of more eyes. Now you can even get help in these places, from one of our Social Network Team members.
EclecticWAHM, SusanVillasLewis, and Rock_The_Ice are three socially attuned lensmasters keeping an eye on your favorite social networks and forums. Look for them on these websites:
- Facebook
- MySpace
- 30DayChallenge
- Warrior Forum
- Twitter
- BlogCatalog
- Sitepoint
- TalkWhatever
- YoungEntrepreneur
- WAHM.com
- StumbleUpon
- and more!
If there’s another network that you think is really important, ask one of these team members to check it out.

SquidSwag is back in gear, no pun intended.

Everyone loves to get a little more out of life. What more can you do with your lenses this week?
Until next time, happy lensmaking!
