Specialty Lenses - What they are used for
Have you seen some of Squidoo's specialty lenses that have a theme to them.
These lenses really "stand out" as individuals among the hundreds of thousands of lenses on Squidoo.
Many of the specialty lenses you see, you might have a good idea what they are about, like Squidpaws. Which is about animals or pets.
But some of them can be a bit confusing if you are seeing them for the first time. For example Hey MonkeyBrain. What did you call me?
This lens is your guide to the specialty lenses and will have the new ones added as they are created by Squidoo.
Squidoo discontinued some of them recently, but I believe that all of those have been removed. Please drop me a comment if you find any links not working. I hope you enjoy this guide to your Squidoo specialty lenses as well as visiting those that people have created already that are featured here.
You might want to bookmark it right now, because believe you me, when you want to make that special lens that fits just right into one of these categories, they may be hard to find.
For ease of navigation, these lenses have been alphabetized by the Lens name. The Table of contents will help you find what you need in a hurry.

What, who is calling me a MonkeyBrain?
Love a great argument?
Highly intelligent people love being able to not only present their views on something but are able to listen to others view and ponder them.
What a fun place to present both sides of controversial subjects!
So if your topic can be viewed from two different angles, and would be a fun, good natured place for intelligent people to argue their point, than a "Hey MonkeyBrain Lens" might just be the place to put it.
