So, Just What is This Curious Thing?

This is a question I get a lot: "Just what is Squidoo?"

Well, what better way for me to answer this question with a lens of my own all about Squidoo! Prepare to be addicted...

Squidoo is very easy and very dangerous. Before you know it, you may find that you have over 50 lenses, like me!

What is a Lens? 

Well, you're looking at one right now!

A "lens" is a page on Squidoo that a Lensmaster (someone like me) has created to "focus" on a certain topic to help you learn more about it! My lens could be about one of my favorite hobbies. Or maybe it's about something I feel passionate about. Either way, my goal is to get information, links, photos and videos to you in a unique way. Oh, and I can make money either for myself or for charity while I'm at it!

I've made so many lenses, I was invited to become a Giant Squid. Now I get to show off my shinny badge to show that I'm a true Squidoo addict!

A Few of My Favorites 

Are you curious now? Well, here is a list of some of my favorite (and most popular) lenses to give you a taste of Squidoo:

So, What Can You Do on Squidoo? 

You don't need to know HTML to make a lens on Squidoo. They do all the hard work for you! All you need is your mouse and a few good ideas. And it costs nothing to join Squidoo. In fact, you can earn money for your favorite charities by making lenses!

Squidoo is incredibly easy to use. The best way to find out is to start your own lens. And if you'd like to be my friend, you can make $5.00, too! With Squidoo's Refer a Friend bonus, you and I will each get $5.00 once your lens earns its first $15.00! All you need to do is sign up and build a lens!

Would you like to see what you can do with Squidoo's nifty modules? Below are just a few examples to show you some ideas.

Great Stuff on Amazon

Great Stuff on eBay 

I like rubber stamping. I've told this e-Bay module to show you search results on e-Bay for Stampin' Up! rubber stamps. How easy is that?
