Do You Really Want to be a Giant Squid?
Jan 10th
With the March Challenge set to begin tomorrow (January 11, 2010) at Squidu I thought it might be a good time to go over the differences between what it means to be a regular lensmaster and a Giant Squid lensmaster.
Lensmasters
All people who make pages at Squidoo are lensmasters and lensmasters come to Squidoo.com for many different reasons. Some lensmasters are looking to promote other sites, or to raise money for charity, or even just to earn money for themselves. Squidoo makes it easy for everyone to create free pages that can do all of those things so basically “anyone” can be a lensmaster.
Giant Squid Lensmasters
Giant Squid lensmasters do more than just create 50 well-written lenses. Giant Squid lensmasters use their imaginations to build truly personalized pages. They don’t follow formulas; they create them. They don’t copy, or purchase articles; they write them. Giant Squid lensmasters are inspirational. They become a part of the Squidoo community by giving of themselves either through their writing, their teaching, their helping, their sharing, their commenting and rating or their spirit.
We know that not everyone will be able to, or have the time, or even want to take the extra steps to become a Giant Squid lensmaster and honestly, that’s okay. Squidoo will still be here for anyone who wants to use it.
But if you really want the badge, the honor, and the rewards of being a Giant Squid lensmaster, you’re going to have to earn it. It’s as simple as that!
You can join us (starting tomorrow) at the So You Want to Be a Giant Squid section of the Squidu forum for more information, help, and encouragement for your own Giant Squid journey.
In the meantime, please share your thoughts about what it means to be a Giant Squid lensmaster in the comments section here.
