Squidoo Exerts Its Evil Influence

I've been resisting the urge to join Squidoo for ages now. Unfortunately, I have finally become convinced that it's a useful way to orgainize my articles even if it doesn't make me (or my chosen charity) any money at all. That's what hooked me, actually - that I can designate a charity to benefit from anything I do over there. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

So far I've only made two lenses - one for my music articles and one for my articles about urban sprawl. I am going to do at least two more. One will be for my articles on parenting and family and the other a catch-all for various subjects.

I'm considering a fifth for book reviews, if only because I read so much, but I don't think the format there lends itself to a running commentary like a blog. I think that, with something like 110 articles out there starving for attention, I needed a way to find them and a way to point folks to similar information.

Obviously, these are a work in progress. I am looking at them as being relatively static, more reference material than active pages. I'm also looking at them as prospective referral pages for future clients, where they can see how I write and how familiar I am with a subject. The lenses will be my online portfolios, tailored to the sorts of jobs for which I am writing queries.

"...160% ALL WEEK! Your exclusive 160% at between Monday 19 December and Monday 26 December with your first 20$ you will automatically qualify for 160% ABSOLUTELY FREE.

Even more - they say all US players are accepted. I decided to share this with all of my fellow forum members here. I will definitely give it a shot myself...
