Time for another squidoo layout..
I Sure hope this one was less controversial than the last one. The last time they changed the layout, a lot of lensmasters got really fired up about it… for about a week.
Change is good. It helps you keep perspective on things.
What i’m most excited about is finding out what the [...]
Lots of stuff happening today that’s Squidoo news related, figured a roundup post was in order.
4 new Modules were released (SquidBlog) today, I think the two Amazon modules are especially worth taking a look at. Haven’t looked too close to see which of these are evergreen, if any. I’ll cover that in a post soon. [...]
Edit: I was extra grumpy when I woke up this morning and made the two cardinal mistakes in blogging – don’t type angry and do your research. I failed miserably at both. Apparently these ads are served by Google and are still CPC, negating my entire argument. Additionally, getting angry doesn’t really solve a lot [...]
As I was lensbuilding this weekend I noticed a new evergreen Module has been released into the wild for Squidoo lensmasters. (What is an evergreen module?)
The Feed My Search module uses FeedMySearch.com to pull relevant news, blog posts, and search engine results into lenses. It works similar to the google blog search module which is [...]
As many of you have probably heard, yesterday Google announced the launch of it’s knol community. (Coverage from Mashable) Often accused as being a ‘Wikipedia‘ killer, Knol is designed to be a ‘moderated place for experts to share their knowledge’… hrmmmm… That sounds remarkably like a certain other site I use (not to name names [...]

Build 10 lenses in 10 days from June 4 – June 17th about eBay. There are of course, lots of fabulous prizes and exposure up for grabs including an eBay Live [...]
I don’t know if squidoo has reached some kind of ‘next level’ or what, but there seems to be an explosion of new Squidoo blogs, people using twitter, and now friendfeed feeds of lensmasters.
Now, this captain sails a fast ship but things are obviously moving at breakneck speed.
Hold on to the ride and we’ll see [...]
As tends to happen every 3 months or so, it appears that Squidoo HQ has again updated the special sauce that keeps Squidoo interesting, Lensrank.
The last lensrank ranking change brought us a much heavier weight placed on traffic and less placed on having a single star rating. This shifted focus towards bringing traffic to your [...]
This is a Visual Representation of the goings on in the Squidoo Chat Room. Stop by and say hi!
The big news today was that eBay is leaving Commission Junction and opening up their own independent affiliate network. It has been covered pretty heavily in the blogosphere so I thought I’d try to enlighten everyone a bit as to how it will affect your Squidoo lenses, since there are TONS of lenses out there [...]
