The thank you lensmaster blog
This lens is dedicated to that blog and to all those lensmasters who have helped me, yet who haven't been interviewed (yet).
BTW: some of you have not been interviewed only because you did not respond to the e-mail...
Some of the more famous lensmasters I got to thank & interview...
Chefkeem is one of the new squidangels. He has blessed a few of my lenses, for which I'm grateful of course. But as a squidangel he also blesses a load of other lenses, for which each of those lensmasters owes him their thanks. And as one of the most active lensmasters on squidu, he contributes more than his share to the squidoo community.
Thanking Chef Keem
Flowergardener is one of the most famous lensmasters at squidoo - not because she markets herself well, but because of her excellent lenses and her contribution to squidu. In other words: she's authentic. She's also one of the first lensmasters to contribute a quote to my Spiritual Quotes lens. Something I remember fondly.Thanking Flowergardener
Does Kim require an introduction? Long time squidangel - she has helped so many lensmasters it's amazing. She has also recently become a squidoo giant greeter. Can you imagine the time and dedication involved in that? Of course it helps if your lenses get blessed and you also get into the giant club. Wow.Thanking Kim Giancaterino
Jaguarjulie must be one of the most popular lensmasters around. Her whopping 680 fans are testimony to that. The fact that she still finds time to rate and comment on lenses like my Dutch ones is amazing to me. With 380 lenses she's also one of the most prolific lensmasters around. Reading her interview is a bit disconcerting. Her most underappreciated lenses still have 28 and 25 votes respectively. Now wouldn't we all love to have that problem? In fact - if you were wondering if she has lenses that haven't been voted on - I couldn't find any. [And she had the courtesy to send the HTML code for this interview - which obviously means less work for me. I can't believe it]Thanking Jaguarjulie
Some lensmasters get thanks for being personal, for voting on lenses, for giving feedback etc. Today's lensmaster has been a service to the community by making tools that help make us ALL better lensmasters :) Presenting SquidUtils. It's my honour to interview thefluffanutta. (He hasn't got 339 fans for nothing, obviously).Thanking the Fluffanutta

Thank you Giant Squid Community Showcase :)
The Giant Squid Community Showcase said about this blog:Giant Squid Lensmaster Spirituality has created a blog called Thank You Lensmaster - Squidoo Reviews where she offers her thank you's by way of blog posts about lensmasters who have helped her on her Squidoo journey.
The blog posts contain fun to read interviews where the lensmasters share their favorite lenses, their favorite tips, a bit about why they Squidoo, and also the names of lensmasters who helped them grow their own success at Squidoo.

Sometimes we can't even remember that one who sent us in a new direction when we felt empty. So thank you for this lens and also thank you to all the unsung heroes. You matter.

Thank you for making this lens and your blog! I was very surprised to get an interview request and enjoyed doing it. I have a feeling someone will be making a Thank You lens or blog about you! You definately make an impression in the Squidoo Community.

I've only been around Squidoo 2 1/2 months, but it's true--without the help of lensmasters with more experience, I would have become overwhelmed by the amount of information to read. I learn something new daily, all thanks to lensmasters who have taken time to mentor me (and help me laugh).
Gratitude is never wasteful! Thank you for this lens.

Hi, Thank you for viewing my latest lens and the 5 stars. Many of the lensmasters you mentioned have been a great help to me also. What a great idea to honor them this way. I also like the way you have grouped a few of your favorite lenses together. I am grabbing the links below. I'll be linked with you that way. Thanks again. 5 stars.

Hi, Katinka. I love this concept. I'm glad you took your blog idea and brought it to Squidoo.
It was good for me to do your interview because it took me out of my normal Squidoo mindset to take a good look at why I'm on it.
Some of the other lensmasters who've been very helpful are Poddys, MrLewis Smile, and SemperFidelis. They are quick to reach out to others, supportive, and have put a lot of effort into being wonderful community members.
