This will be our little Squidtop secret for now, okay?

Tell me which lens you’d like to see showcased and give me a quick reason why.  The lens can be one of your own (if you’re a Giant) or a Giant lens that you like.  To get this started, and to see where it goes, I’ll accept one suggestion per customer.

You can post your favorites here in the comments section or use my contact me button.

Can’t promise that every lens suggested will be featured but I’d sure like to take a look at what you’ve got.

And I wanted you to be the first to know that I will be the Squid Citizen Mentor in charge of taking it to the next level ,where I’ll be working to answer questions from lensmasters who want to become Giant Squids.  The official team and program hasn’t been announced yet but in the meantime if you know of any potential Giants please send them over to the lens. 

 I’ll keep you posted!

I did have a chance today to build a lens for the Superhero Project at Squidoo.  It’s a tribute to my favorite superheroes, the Giant Squids, and a check point for all the Giant Squid Hopefuls to let them know what we are looking for.   It’s called What makes a Giant Squid Lensmaster a Superhero and I hope you’ll check it out.

I also finally got around to updating Cabaret Squidoo with a fabulous recipe lens that features the best peach cobbler recipe and also my namesake lens, Robin.

I promise to try harder to keep my squidiary up to date in the future!

And why was I so busy yesterday?  Believe it or not, I started yet another blog.  To be honest, this one should have been my first.  I have so many gardening articles from my days at Garden and Hearth that I can’t believe I didn’t think of doing this a lot sooner.  Some of those articles have already been turned into lenses but others were just laying around gathering dust so I decided to make a new home for them at  Fresh From Your Garden.  I’m not thrilled with the layout yet and I’ll probably end up changing the theme but please take a look and let me know what you think of the place so far.

I also added a post to Cabaret Squidoo.  This one is about my zucchini recipes lens.

Here’s a link:  Duran Duran on Tour 2008

As I was browsing AOL yesterday I came across an article about Oprah starting a new diet and I thought to myself, Who really cares?  Well, if you know me well enough by now you know that whenever I get a funny idea like that, I feel compelled to make a lens about it.  This one seemed perfect for the Hey Monkeybrain co-brand and so What Won’t Oprah Eat was born.

There are also two new posts at the Giant Squid Community Showcase that you should see.  One explores different ways of using the Write/Text module and the other presents this week’s winner in the Choose Your Favorite Giant Squid Lens competition.

And last but not least if you like pancakes and waffles, you need to visit Cabaret Squidoo because I’ve got a real treat for you there!

As you can probably guess, I will be making a lens to mark the occasion!  Stay tuned… I’ll post the link here once it’s done.

In the meantime, don’t miss bdkz’s latest post at the Giant Squid Community Showcase

rms’s Squidiary will be the place where I post all Squidnews about my lenses and blogs, including updates at The Giant Squid Community Showcase (where your  Giant Squid Community Organizers, bdkz, GypsyPirate, and I,  feature the lenses made exclusively by Squidoo’s Giant Squids) and Cabaret Squidoo where I feature my favorite Squidoo recipe lenses.

Yesterday’s post at Cabaret Squidoo, Perfect Party Dips and Appetizer Recipes, featured a couple of lenses designed to help you get your next party off to a great start. 

And my post at the Giant Squid Community Showcase, Giant Lensography Lenses, featured JaguarJulie’s tremendous lensography.

I’ll be back tomorrow with more!
