Squidoo HTML Helper Lenses

I'm stuck between thinking this thing is a lifesaver and thinking that it's made me really lazy. It just makes building these lenses soooo easy! I mean, all I have to do is click the mouse and my text is formatted, or I click the mouse and I have a hyperlink or picture.

Squidatorium is a program you download onto your computer. It's catered towards the specific HTML that Squidoo allows and makes it easy to find the specific code you want. For those having trouble coming up with lens ideas, it even has a topic generator.

The SquidUtils toolbar puts all your squidoo links right at your fingertips. My favorite part is that it also lets me know when I have an email on Yahoo or Google.

The workshop addon helps you select the best tags with it's color coded tag editor. It also gives you access to tools in the sidebar (pinging, health check, back link checker, etc). And if you like building your own Table of Contents, this will be a huge time saver because it puts the module link at the top of each module. Plus it gives you more detailed lens stats (and who doesn't want that?).
