I'm fairly new to squidoo but I'm really impressed with the program and maybe by this time next year I'll be a little more "GiantSquid"-like!

Hi,
thanks, Ive published almost 18 lenses, some still need a bit of work, but not one has been looked at by anyone. Time to learn how to create at least a few links. Cos, I cant tell if my squids are really bad unless someone reads them.
Maybe I should start a worst squids ever page and see if that does anything!!!

I've written & published 3 lenses in the last 24 hours - I'm on my way. Thank you for the inspiration!

Becoming a Giant Squid is worth it for the lens template alone! You'll learn how to make a great lens, build some traffic, and have fun making lenses. Congratulations to all of the Giant Squids that made it for December '09, and remember, March isn't far away!
Great work!

I would love to be a Giant Squid, but I am still having difficulty coming up with the necessary time to produce 50 original lenses. I will get there, but at my current rate it might take me another 12 months.

Great information. We have always wanted to become Giant Squids and are enjoying our path towards it, it's lenses like this which makes it worth our while. Best wishes to you and yours. 5*

Bonnie, thanks for mentioning me and my lens. I'm so excited and flattered.

I'd love to become a Giant Squid; I think I'll need to read up a bit more about this.

Re: my June 17, 2008, posting which I reproduced here: "I've written a lens called in Search of Giants Squids. Will appreciate pointers from both Giant Squids and non Giant Squids.
Posted June 17, 2008"
I've since deleted that lens of mine as I thought it would be more appropriate to write such a lens when I managed to attain Giant Squid status one day.

Hi Bonnie (once again this morning). I've followed your links to here and WOW - loads of info to put me on the road to becoming a GS. I've downloaded the ebook and can see I'm going to very, very busy over the next week taking all this in. Thankyou to all the team for the support, Steve.

To be perfectly honest, I'll be disappointed if I'm not turning giant with the coming batch of baby-giant-squids :)

Thanks for the invite, -count me in. I'm working really hard in hopes of reaching 50 in time. By the way, do you know what's really funny? When your out in public and your 8 year old tells people how hard you're working to become a Giant Squid, lol.
