My wireless loves me, it loves me not

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Wireless Fidelity... you mean, whether my Internet connection is cheating on me? Is it seeing another user? Does it love my neighbor's computer more? OMG nooooo!
Okay, no.
Wireless Fidelity is known by its more familiar nickname, WiFi. High speed internet and network connection without the use of wires, cables and other stuff you can trip [...]

Spring already?

Tuesday, March 18th, 2008

The first day of Spring is this Thursday.
Boy did that ever sneak up on me.
Easter, too.
But lensmaster Pastiche is ready to go! She's got a bunch of great Easter crafting, coloring and clip art lenses up her sleeve.
Here's one to get you started.

Now, go scribble outside the lines. I dare you.
P.S. [...]

Best. Cookies. Ever.

Monday, March 17th, 2008

How better to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day than with some shamrock sugar cookies?
(Up to you whether they go well with Guinness...)
Be sure to bookmark Barkley's lens for the next time you break out the rolling pin and flour. It doesn't disappoint.

Horton Hears A Who

Sunday, March 16th, 2008

Anyone else see Horton Hears A Who over the weekend?
What did you think?
Thumbs up or thumbs down, post your review here.
Always one to gloriously overdeliver (that's a good thing), Comfortdoc's lens has all the who-hearing wholesomeness that you could ever hope for.

Lensography of A Well Dressed Bullet (and how to make your own!)

Saturday, March 15th, 2008

This concludes our miniseries in lensographies, and we're ending with a bang.
3 things for today:
1. AWellDressedBullet has crafted an introduction page (okay, lensography) for the rest of her lenses. And, since her lenses sell stuff from her own online store, what she's created here is basically a really rich, personalized online shopping catalogue. As she [...]

Think Big’s Lensography

Thursday, March 13th, 2008

Lensmaster "Think Big" does just that. His motto: Think big, plan big, act big, achieve big.
No surprise he's got about a million lenses on Squidoo (okay quite not that many). And his lensmaking strategy looks a little something like this: Research hot or niche topics that people are buying in; set up product lenses that [...]

Kim Giancaterino’s Lensography

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

The true mark of a Giant Squid: Kim Giancaterino has 137 lenses "...and I still have more lenses on my to-do list!!"
I hear ya.
It's almost as much fun to look forward to the lenses you're going to make as it is to show them off (and reap the benefits) once you're done.
Ever stuck for [...]

Jaguar Julie’s Lensography

Tuesday, March 11th, 2008

My favorite kinds of lenses are the ones we at Squidoo never imagined people making--and the ones that wind up spreading through the community faster than the beer runs out on St. Patricks Day.
I don't remember who made the first Lensography lens, but what a cool way to set up your own Squidoo Hall of [...]
