On January 13th, I received confirmation that I was accepted as a Giant Squid on Squidoo. I am thrilled that my ideas, articles, and opinions have received such a welcoming response so far, and proudly display my new badge on my lenses! Squidoo has brought me great online friendships with other lensmasters of all ages with varied interests.
I ran into a Squidoo lens on a search in Google a little over 3 months ago, and the "Build a New Lens" button tempted me with a challenge I couldn't resist...next thing you know - I had 50 unique lenses created and decided to try out for the elite Giant status. It's a fantastic marketing tool, but the biggest reward is having a creative outlet where others want to read your work and even help promote your efforts along with you. The Squidoo community speaks for itself.
