So my buddy and co-host of the Mundane Chatter Podcast, Yomar, kept talking my ear about this social networking too called Squidoo (Pronounced Squid-Dew) and finally I decided to give it a try. Yet another night taken away from my much valued tv watching!
Anyway the way the folks at Squidoo explain it this platform is:
It’s a supersimple, fun and powerful way to share your interests, build your online identity and credibility, and connect with new readers and friends.
So basically you create a “lens” or page dedicated to an interest you may have and try to create a community gathering around it. I guess it’s kind of like a forum thread only with the look and feel of an interactive blog (if that makes any sense). I’m still trying to make sense out of it. All I know is that it took me a hell of a time completing one.
If anyone’s interested, feel free to check out my “lens” about my favorite sci-fi show of all time, Farscape. Here’s hoping to see you there.
Oh yeah, Yomar also made a Squidoo lens for our podcast if you want to check that out as well.
