Interesting News,
Gil announced that Squidoo has removed the no-follow links located in certain modules (About Me, My Lenses, Text with Big Picture).
MORE interesting,
RSS has had No-Follow ADDED to it. Before the changes there was absolutely no reason for RSS to have no-follow applied to RSS modules, as the entire module was rendered in a way that effectively makes it invisible to Search Engines anyway.
HOWEVER, now that no-follow has been added to the links in the RSS module does that mean that RSS feeds will become indexable soon?? If so, It would be the Ultimate Evergreen Module!

I’ll have to check out how I’m going to need to tweak the lens building to adjust for these changes.
If the RSS feeds would get indexed that would be great! I just use Google Blog Search for now.

Interesting. I wish Squidoo would dofollow the fans links. On the topic of nofollow, you changed your blog comments to nofollow Joe. Why the change?

Hey captain, speaking of RSS — when I tried to copy the URL from your blog feed button at the top and your Full RSS feed at the bottom and add it to a RSS Feed sidebar widget, it barfed on me.
I think there’s a word “Feed:” at the beginning of the URL that’s throwing it off. I tried removing it and it worked.
Just adding the blog feed to a lens about Squidoo stats. I can give all kinds of tips on how to get traffic, but moneymaking techniques? I’ll leave that to the experts.
