I'm always a bit scared I'm over using it. But then, I don't really get annoyed at the way other people use it - so I probably obsess too much over it.

I'm always a bit scared of overusing it. But then, I'm not annoyed at other people squidcasting that they added something to their lenses, or created new ones, so I guess I may be worrying about nothing.

I'm kind of torn on this. On one hand I like it, because I get updates from my fave Squidooers, and I can let my own fans know when I've made a new lens; but on the other hand it takes time away from other things I could be doing.
