Margaret Schaut's Favorites

Margaret_Schaut chose these lenses because:

The David page is my favorite because I can help renew people's appreciation for the importance and RELEVANCE of this ancient statue, and the artist that sculpted him. Modern Art is wonderful (think Andy Warhol) yet we easily forget the greatness of the heritage. All art is in some way compared to the greatest of the great and gets its validity from there. So reaching the average person, in such a way as the page could even be used by teachers or homeschoolers as a teaching tool, was important to me.

The First Lens page is my favorite because I have had numerous emails about how encouraging and helpful the page has been for people who were visitors to Squidoo and then, because of the page, became lensmasters. Many people are overwhelmed by doing something new like this and it takes courage to try. So the page takes people step by step, helps them to figure it out, gives them a few really useful pointers, and we get fabulous new lensmasters out of it. I really like that, because the more brilliant and creative people we have making Squidoo pages, the more wonderful Squidoo becomes all the time.

The Ten Quick Steps to Destroy America is my favorite because, not only is it an issues page, in my estimation it is THE issue. All the freedoms that America has offered has given people the right to be creative, to be enterpreneurial, to exercise great genius in solving humanity's problems. That freedom is nearly gone, taken by people who believe more in power and in greed; in control and in their own desires, than they believe in America or her people. If America's freedom is gone, everything else we prize, every other opportunity, every other agenda, every other problem crying for a solution, is over. So let's take a look at the danger our liberty and freedom is in, take care of that problem NOW, and get back to the business of America- or lose America and forget about the rest. We'll just be like the oppressed people of communist countries, under a dictatorship. Our green revolutions, our concern for the poor, our worries about the disabled or homeless, all of them will be meaningless under a regime that cares nothing for our Constitution or our people.

Legbamel's Fave Three

Legbamel chose:

1) Find and Enjoy More Music tops the list, easily. I could update this lens every two days with a new band or music resource that I've uncovered, but if I were going to do that I'd have to commit to another blog! Picking one per month makes me really consider my choice rather than making a snap decision.

2) Best.Grammar.Ever is my second favorite, because it does exactly what I intended it to do. It helps people looking for grammar answers to find what they are looking for on my blog.

3) My sweet potato lens takes the #3 spot. I consistently get more traffic to it than I could have imagined, and it's taken over how I look at recipes. I find myself thinking, " could="could" you="you" use="use" sweet="sweet" potatoes="potatoes" in="in" would="would" i="i" make="make" it="it" that="that">

Chefkeem's 3 Most Favorite Lenses

Chefkeem chose these three as his personal favorite Squidoo lenses.

1. "How to Squidoo with a lotta help from my friends"
This lens is an ode to the generosity of all featured lensmasters, all of them instrumental during my Squidoo apprenticeship over the last 10 weeks. This is my personal Squidoo tutorial archive - a great place for any newbies to start out on their exciting Squidoo journey and an evolving all-in-one reference for any of us during our quest to become better lensmasters.

2. "Yodelers"
Here I find pure fun and joy, and I hope for my visitors to experience some of the same. Yodeling makes your heart smile, and some of the featured young talents manage to squeeze a little tear drop into my eyes.

3. "Organic Flavored Agave Nectar"

This healthy sweetener is my creation, my "baby". I've worked hard for 3 years to develop my product and with this lens I can introduce it to the world.

Kephrira's Chosen Few

Kephrira says: "The first lens I've Chosen to Submit is my Art of Alchemy lens at http://www.squidoo.com/alchemyart I chose this because it is a subject that I find really fascinating and inspiring, and because it has a nice mix of art, shopping (clothes designs) and writing.

Secondly I have chosen Science and God: The Faithful Sceptic at http://www.squidoo.com/thefaithfulsceptic because it is definitely the one I put the most thought into, and I reckon it's quite unique.

My third Lens is The World's Funniest Ambiguous Headlines at http://www.squidoo.com/funniest-headlines because its completely different from the other two, its funny, and its new."

Some of DMedley's Favorite Lenses

DMedley says:
I was once asked if I wanted Steak or Lobster, I struggled for a time with this question and then asked "Could I have Steak and Lobster?" No you must decide. How many times I went back and forth is a vague memory today, yet I remember struggling for the answer. The same feeling comes over me when asked to pick my favorite three lenses.

"How To Smoke Foods For Pleasure And Taste" because it has proven to be such a useful resource for so many people. When I first began this lens, it was mostly for my own use, a record of places to find great recipes. Since it has grown well beyond the original internt.

"How To Build A Food Smoker" was an extension lens. I began doing research for my new smokehouse and recorded my findings as I went. I knew that I would not be the only person searching for this information and time has proven me correct.

"DMedley The Lensography" is my third choice. I have selected this lens because it reveals the most about me and my interests. I actually learn something about myself by reviewing the topics and lenses within the Lensography.

Adez7's Favorites

Adez7 chose these 3 of her favoite lenses:
#1) The Classic Old Board Games lens is one of my favorite lenses because it brings back so many great memories when we were kids about how we spent our time playing these great games and the fun they brought us.

#2) My - Water, toys, and ... Lens would have to be next in line and I will tell you why. Every summer we have all the grand kids, our kids, and many tag along others and their kids over every Friday for a day of fun in the sun. We set up the big Swimming pool water slide, and get this, Don heats the water to about 100 degrees. It is like taking a nice warm bath outside in the sun. We have a 100 foot tire swing hooked to a giant cottonwood tree in the back yard, a 18 foot round tramp, swing set, sand box, tons of toys, and more animals than one would imagine.

#3) This would have to be my Classic Old Toys lens for the same reasons as no 1.

Flowergardener's Chosen Few

Flowergardener says "My Flower Garden was created on the very first day I joined Squidoo, which was also the birthday of my late father. Not knowing the intricate workings of Squidoo, and what I should make a lens on, I just wrote about what I loved and was very familiar with. The result is a pretty deep view of my personality and life.

Diecast Collectibles was created after being here 3 months, and is a tribute to my Father. Having passed when I was only 19; (over 30 years ago), the lens records a few of my early memories of my Dad, and can still bring tears to my eyes when I view it.

'Flowergardener' is my Bio lens, which also records my thoughts, feelings, and personality; along with my 90 lenses and 7 groups - and why I created them."

JaguarJulie's Most Beloved Lenses

JaguarJulie says: My dear, much like eating just one potato chip, you can well imagine my perplexation at picking just THREE of my favorite lenses!

Jaguar Julie Lensography: Because it is a compilation of my somewhat varied and eclectic lenses; plus the terrific honor of LOTD. If you aren't featuring 'lensographies,' I can nominate another one of my lenses. ;-)

Made in Hungary: A lens created with much love to celebrate our trip to Hungary/old Hungary to trace my grandfather's roots and to celebrate all that is 'made in Hungary' ... something that continues to amaze me everytime I update that lens.

A Spotted Trend: Polka Dots -- Another lens that was one of my original lenses, celebrating a trend that I dearly LOVE ... polka dots. Since I first created this lens 2 years ago, I've loved the proliferation of polka dots in more than just clothing and accessories.">

JewelryGrandma chose this lens as her favorite.

Elkat's Favorites

Eelkat says: It's so hard to pick just three! I am so passionate about every topic I create a lens for! Here are my choices though:

#1) Lord Sesshomaru Costume

With over 20,000 words written for this one, you can tell this really tops the ranks as the lens I put the most time and energy into. This is my "monster" lens, cause it just keeps growing and growing as I find new things to add to it every week. It's me and CosPlay and historical reenactment gone mega wild.

#2 Publishing Methods

One of my very first lenses, this lens made it to #32 and stayed on The Top 100 List for a little over a month. This lens took well over three months to write the long articles for. Basically a an info lens for self-publishers.

#3) Ekography

My personal lensography, and yet another monster sized lens; this one not only links back to all of my 200 lenses, but also serves as my personal biography/profile lens as well. Anyone who want to get to know me better would do good to stop here first.

Karmapeace's Favorite Lens

Karmapeace says: My lenses pertain to very personal interests of my own.

SilvaraWilde's Favorites

SilvaraWilde says: My 3 are kind of eclectic. *grins* Finn mcCool is my favorite Irish folkhero, I've been fascinated with him ever since I was a child and love all the myths and legends attributed to him.

The Peter Pan lens is on one of the best Peter Pan cartoons ever. It's not sweet and all like the Disney version, it's more dark and actually deals with real issues as well as everyone in the show having actual thought-out personalities.

And mystery snails are one of my new loves. They're so neat looking, come in so many colors, and they can breath in OR out of the water.

Lensmaster Fanfreluche's Featured Favorites

Fanfreluche says: "Stamps kilowares were for me as a kid the cheapest way to grow my stamp collection. It was also one of the most fun way to do it. I remember spending hours with my dad soaking and drying these stamps. I still buy them, because I can't resist the thrill of finding a great stamp for my collection.

Mylene Farmer because she was and still is my favorite french singer. She has been around for more than 20 years and is preparing another tour in 2008.
As my third lens, I will take my selecta toys, because this is a brand of toys I buy for my baby, they are safe, non-toxic and not made in China."

JustBonCrochet's Favorite Featured Squidoo Lenses

JustBonCrochetDesigns says:
"Why these lenses? I'm a pop culture freak and love all kinds of entertainment. I created the Glam Rock and Avengers lenses because of my husband. He's a Brit and these were done for him. He helped me a lot with them.

David Archuleta is such a sweetie on American Idol that I couldn't resist doing a lens about him. He really has a chance at winning!

Lastly, these are the lenses that I've spent most time and work on, and feel most proud of."

Rwoman's Favorite Lenses

Rwoman says: "I picked my 3 lenses because (in brief) I love trivia, I love self improvement topics from inspiration and motivation to learning and education, and I love writing.

If you want more detail.

As you will see from Useless Trivia Fun that I have a lot of trivia quizzes and questions to share (and this is only the tip of the iceberg!

Self Improvement shares my articles and lenses on various inspirational and educational topics. I have been writing and researching in this area for several years.

Writers Resources shares my writing tips. This is also just the tip of the iceberg as my professional life has been spent writing, editing and teaching writing and I continue to learn more and share more as I learn about it.

Thanks for letting me share!"

Robin, thanks for adding my pages! This is such a good idea. The pages that are the lensmaster favorites may be very different than we would expect, and I really had a hard time choosing. Maybe in the future I can add another three! This is a terrific opportunity to give insight to lensmasters, and help us know them better. Bravo for another great idea! You're just full of them!
