Who wants to be a Giant Squid?

If you are brand new to Squidoo or have been navigating the waters for some time, you might have heard of the Giant Squids. The Giant Squids are a unique club of VIP lensmasters who have earned their way in with top-notch lenses. In order to become a Giant Squid you’ll need at least 50 super quality lenses under your belt.

Sound like a big challenge?

It is, we know.

But you are not alone in your quest for the gold! Our volunteer Giant Squid Greeters are running a fun and easy ’school spirit’ program to help you on the way to Giant Squidhood by the next deadline, September 30th 2009. It’s a wonderful way to get a little help from your friends along with a big dose of motivation. Not recommended for those trying to break lensmaking addictions. :)

Join a Team
Your Giant Squid Greeters will be cheering you on toward possible Giant Squid status in September 2009. Not sure which team to join, just go ahead and pick one. Every single one of our Greeters is a good lensmaster and a generous member of the Squidoo community….

Team One
“Welcome to the lens for Team One. We are one of five teams competing in the Giant Squid Challenge September 2009 — organized by our volunteer Giant Squid Community Organizers and the Giant Squid Greeters. It’s a friendly competition geared to inspire and motivate you to be your best.”

Rajays Rocking Squids
“If you are looking to become a Giant Squid or Giant 100 Club member this October 2009, then I WANT YOU to join The Rajays Rocking Squids Team. The Squidoo Giant Greeters and Organizers have a competition setup to recruit potential Giants and Giant 100’s to join our individual teams.”

Kab’s Fab Squid Squad
“Hey there, fellow lensmaster. So, you’re trying to become a Giant Squid, eh? Or, what’s that, you’re shooting for Giant Squid 100 Club? Well, welcome to Kab’s Fab Squid Squad, a team of lensmasters just like you in a race for their lives (and when I say lives I mean badges).”

Jolly Judicious Jetsetters
“This is soooooooooo exciting. We all had a great time with the first challenge in May and June. We produced over 400 lenses and found lots of great Squidoo friends! Would you like to be a Jolly Judicious Jetsetter this session?”

Willow’s Wonder Squids
“You’re invited to jump right in and join this challenge! A little elaboration for all of you who came to this lens: Giant Squid Organizers and Greeters are throwing a great and fun challenge called Giant Squid Challenge September 2009 for all lensmasters who want to meet deadline September 30, 2009 with at least 50 outstanding lenses!”

Quick! What's Squidoo?

Squidoo is the popular publishing platform and community that makes it easy for you to create "lenses" online. Lenses are pages, kind of like flyers or signposts or overview articles, that gather everything you know about your topic of interest – and snap it all into focus. 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. It's all free, and you could even earn a royalty for charity or yourself!
