Big New Stuff!
We just introduced a bunch of cool new features. They should make your Squidoo experience a little more flexible and functional — and a lot more fun. Among the new features:
- A new landing page! This revamped front door highlights our Lens of the Day, 9 Things You Didn’t Know and featured Lensmasters. This new entry point should get you started, fast.
- The Top 100 now includes a wide range of how to look at our “bestsellers.” See the top 100 lenses in terms of ratings, email referrals, blog mentions, traffic and LensRank. We’re really excited about these new lists — they’re going to surface a whole new cross-section of the best lenses on Squidoo. You can even subscribe to RSS feeds of your favorite Top 100 lists.
- Lensmasters can now transfer lenses to another lensmaster. If you want to transfer a lens from one account to another — or sell a lensname to another lensmaster — you can. For lensnames, think URLs: If a lens address you want is taken, you can come up with a suitable alternate or contact the lensmaster and arrange a barter! How do you transfer a lens? Log into SquidU and learn how.
- We now offer people who register for Squidoo the ability to choose whether they launch links in a new window. If you’d rather continue to open external links in the same window, consider changing your My Account settings.
- Tons of bugs have been fixed. OK, it’s not a new feature, but squashing bugs always makes for a better Squidoo experience.
Long story short: If you haven’t stopped by Squidoo for awhile, check it out!
