‘Tis the Squidooing Season
If you’re at all like me, the holiday hustle and bustle of late has filled your head with dozens of ideas. Shopping lenses and gift lenses and activity lenses and entertainment lenses. Recipe lenses and decorating lenses and how to survive your crazy cousin Melvin and how to host a kindergarten recital. The best locations in town for after-Christmas shopping specials and how to string out gift giving for eight days. Your ideas for surprising your honey on Valentine’s Day and your new wish list of stuff you didn’t get for Christmas. Your resolutions for 2009 and all the foods you’ve sworn off your diet.
And, if you’re anything like me, you’ve been busy with relatives and presents and cleaning and eating, and haven’t made time to get these thoughts down on lenses. What a wonderful opportunity to share Squidoo! In fact, when is a better time to share Squidoo than the holidays? You have a captive audience of out-of-town relatives and record royalties to show off. And think of all the great new modules and tools we’ve added this fall. Oh yeah, Squidoo is definitely cool holiday entertainment.
So gather the family ’round ye old laptop for a spell and show them how it’s done. Take some of those ideas and whip up a few lenses, with the help of your company, of course.
- Record your family’s special wishes for the new year.
- Host a Stickler Family Stuffing Showdown.
- Create a virtual tour of your holiday decorating techniques.
- Debate whose Secret Santa gift was truly the best.
- Publish your own holiday how-to mini-series.
- Say hi to distant relatives.
- Memorialize someone special.
- Make a wish list for charity.
- SquidWho for everyone!
(And be sure to help them sign up for their own accounts!)
Young and old, there’s a Squidoo for everyone. From a collection of the “cute” things your kids have said far too loud in public to a showcase of your great-aunt’s vintage cuckoo clock collection, Squidoo is what you make it. This year, make it a family affair.
Enjoy your time together!
