THE GIANT SQUIDS 100 CLUB (and how you can become one)
Ranked #101 in Squidoo Tips, #8,094 overall | Donates to Squidoo Charity Fund
Who are the 100 Club?
They are the best of the best. These top notch lens masters are known for their superior lens making abilities, mentoring, charity work and all around helpfulness.
You're likely to spot them on the 100 Lens Rank list, blogs and the SquidU Forum. Many of them are also Squid Angels and Citizen Squids.
Sound interesting? Good, because we are always on the lookout for more members.
Read on for more information about how your can join the 100 Club Ranks!
SOME QUICK FAQ'S
Or, frequently given answers!
2. Yes, we let new people into the program quarterly.
3. Yes, you could ask other Giants for input and advice along the way.
4. Yes, the lenses need to be together in just one lensmaster account.
5. Nope, Groups don't count toward 100 Club status. Groups and lenses are such different animals. The best Groups are about leadership and curation (letting only the best, most relevant lenses in), often run by a team. Whereas the best lenses are independent efforts at organizing the best content, ideas, recommendations, links and products on your topic.

THE GIANT SQUIDS (and how you can become one)
-
No, it's not a rock group (but it might as well be). It's the core group of movers and shakers at Squidoo. It's a gathering of influentials, the most dedicated lensmakers on Squidoo. Here's how this whole thing started. One day at Squidoo Headquarte...
WHAT THE 100 CLUB GETS
1. A special 100 Club Badge for your lenses.
2. A 20% lensrank boost for any (single) lens you choose.
3. There's a few more, but we like suprises so you'll just have to get into the 100 Club to see what they are!
WHAT THE 100 CLUB GIVES IN RETURN
Mainly, inspiration.
Being in the 100 Club puts you in the Squidoo spotlight and allows you to be a leader through your lenses, blogs and charity work both on and off of Squidoo.
This can be a big responsibility, but it can also be a tremendous amount of fun and very rewarding. By being a leader you are able to give back to the Squidoo community in ways you never imagined.

I believe this is the first time I've visited this lens Bonnie. I will be trying for the 100 Club next round. It takes passion, dedication; and in my case necessity is the mother of invention.
Informative lens! Thank you!

I would love to be in the 100 club. BUT - I have noticed that lenses chosen for best of the day or have many ratings, are kind of American. I am Swedish. Struggle with the language and am not so popular among the US people. I have made over 100 lenses already but moved the ones with flowers to another lensmaster: irenemariaamoroso. I am working with lenses all the time and LOVE IT so much! Perhaps I one day make the perfect one =)

I am already a Giant Squid thanks to GypsyPirate and the rest of Y'alls!
I want IN!! I have 105 Lenses that I think Kick a*S ...DO YOU???
I have been a busy bee and have added loads of new lenses and perfected older ones since attaining Giant Squid Status : )
Hope you will take a gander and let me know if you think I am worthy of being a 100 Club GIANT SQUID!

Thanks for doing this
Maybe include the email that people need to send their 100 club applications to? I couldn't see it anywhere.

Now that I sort of know what I'm doing (made Giant in January) and am learning my way around the new dashboard, I want to shoot for Giant100 - but I doubt I can manage it by the March deadline, so I'm aiming for the June 09 deadline. Thanks for another great lens!

Well, I have culled some of my lenses that ranked closer to 100,000 and have 60 lenses now, so it will take time to get to 100, but that's my next goal!

Have to become a Giant and then join this club at 100. Expect that second goal will be a while in coming but your page put visions of lenses in my head!

Hello to all the "Giant 100 Club Members". An amazing group and I know how hard you have worked to make this club. I currently have 82 lenses so I believe that Membership is in my future. I will more than likely not make the December deadline for this quarter but I will be working hard to join your ranks soon.

I think GramaBarb is an inspiration to ALL of us -- you go Grandma! Is there a list of Giant Squid 100s? Any history of the origin of the Giant Squid 100s? I'd love to be included in your profile on your blog.
