Chapter 22 - Squidbook Authors Group

My first group.

Chapter 22 - My first group 

Groups are a natural development for Squidoo. Once a large number of lenses are created, there need some way to separate and group them. It also helps people with similar interests to get together and share each others lens and support each other. Groups in general are a good thing. I have avoided creating groups because it just seems like extra work. I have joined many existing groups and they have helped me learn about the other lensmasters. Recently, with the urging of a fellow lensmaster, and with the popularity of Squidbooks, I decided to venture into creating and managing a group. So far, it has been a positive experience. I have heard from other lensmasters that some groups have been under attack recently by spammers. These are people who create lens mainly to sell other people's stuff and they will try and join any group that will accept them even though their topic have nothing in common with the rest of the group. So far, I have not experienced this attack. What it does is also makes extra work for the group managers. It's like getting spam mail and you need to spend time to sort through them. I sympathize with these lensmasters. They are hardworking and trying to provide a service and someone else wants to spoil it.
