http://www.squidoo.com/severe_weather_phobia I am a bit upset tonight (Wednesday) because for some reason my newest lens is not loading and I can not edit it either. I did submit a bug report.

Please feel free to check out some of my other lenses though at: http://www.squidoo.com/lensmasters/Teddi14 or I would love it if you a fan too.

See you there & wish me luck!

I have set a goal of reaching 250 Squidoo fans by March 1st, 2009...Can you help me?



I have made a personal goal to have at least 250 Squidoo fans by March 1st, 2009. As of today Feb. 22nd, 2009 I have 158 fans. Just seven days to reach my goal.

Can you help me? I have a diverse list of over 45 lenses. I am sure there are some of interest to you or somebody you know. If you are not a fan would you consider becoming one? If you are a fan already you can still help me by passing my Squido bio link on to someone else send out a tweet about it on twitter?

Please check me out on Squidoo:
http://www.squidoo.com/lensmasters/Teddi14 or go directly to my lensography and read more about me first if you would like: http://www.squidoo.com/teddi

Attention Squidoo Lensmasters



Hello Squidooers, you might want to double check your Facebook connect setting on your Squidoo bio- Mine somehow got turned "off".

Also, if you have made a Twitter Storm double check your Royality settings on each Storm. Mine did not default to the cash option like they were set up to.

Help me please with my Squidoo lens that dropped from 400ish in ranking to 116,611 in ONE DAY

Just after the new year was rung in my highest ranked lens dropped from 400ish in ranking to 116,611 in one day! I have alerted Squidoo of this bug but so far nothing has been done to help. My lens actually got as high in the rankings as 45!!!

Problem--Apparently I was updating my lens when the site was updating and as a result for some reason bumped my lens way way down. I am just crushed because I have worked extremely hard on keeping it updated and spreading the word about it. You can read more about it and what other lensmasters are saying at Squid U: http://www.squidu.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=27299 and http://www.squidu.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=174650#p174650

You can help by tweeting the following:

Limited time baby & kids freebies at:
http://www.squidoo.com/baby_kids_freebies

The more visitors and ratings I get it will help. I have given up on Squidoo resolving the situation--I just want my lens back where it was in the rankings. You can also add my lens link to your blog, website or Squidoo lens.

Thanks for helping!!!

Cool site for Twitter users.


Thanks to JaguarJulie I found a great site for Twitter users. It is called Twitter Grader. The Twitter Grade measures the reach and authority of a Twitter user.

Other cool stuff too. You can get a badge for your lens bio, your blog or your website. You can also search for Twitter users by location, name, keyword, or email address. The site has a new TwitSnip bookmarklet -- the coolest way to tweet content from any website.

Here is mine http://twitter.grader.com/teddi14

Enjoy!

TWITTRSTRM . . .


"Psst . . . have you heard?"

If you have not heard the buzz about this new way to spread tweets like a virus and get more lens traffic you have got to check out
http://www.squidoo.com/about-twttrstrm
and start a discussion today!

Take note that when you make a lens with this plug in royalty setting does default to charity and not to cash so if you want to change it to cash you have to change the setting when you create or update the lens.

Have fun and many tweets & traffic to you!

Here is my first twttrstrm:

The best place for Lensmasters to visit daily


If you are a lensmaster you must visit SquidUtils. SquidUtils.com - is a website developed by the lensmaster & Giant Squid: thefluffanutta.

SquidUtils.com is not owned by or affiliated with Squidoo.com or SquidU.com, and is provided only for Lensmasters to use with their own Lenses.

I LOVE the advanced dashboard that is available. It is so much easier to make changes to my lenses here. The coolest thing I found there is being able to ping my lens.

This is the site were I also got my fans counter graphic/button which I added to this blog, my bio, and other profiles on the web. It is a great way to get visitors and to spread the word about Squidoo.

I think this site is one of the single most useful sites for lenmasters to use in developing & maintaining their lenses.
