Seriously. This is the best all-inclusive explanation I have seen that explains all of these issues going on with Squidoo. I have pretty much said all of these things to my own team but I didn’t say any of it with the easy-to-understand explanations you have provided here. You actually just earned a permanent place on my add-on bar! Thanks for such helpful information to all of us struggling to understand these issues better!

Your latest post was another excellent summary of the ongoing drama. Thanks for doing all that tough research and putting it into a very readable article.

How true, this is such a brilliant way of describing a chronic illness – thank you!

wow – that so perfectly describes what happens every day, and how if you are not prepared, well planned, organized, your day just implodes on you.

So good to read, and learn a way to describe CFS other than just “waking up every day with the worst flu you ever had, ten times over”

Absolutely! I will be, once I have something useful to report on my other efforts! But I’ve been on semi-hiatus for a few months, so my progress on my non-Squidoo efforts is slow.*

That said, I’ve actually talked a fair amount about Hubpages on this blog in the past, as well as general web trends, search news, and social media; Squidoo has just been the most common topic.

The blog may be due for a rebranding, however. I’ve been mulling it over, but I’m still waiting for inspiration to strike as far as a new name.

*It’s taking me a while to get going. I’ve simply been blogging on something I love and letting myself recover a bit from the Squidoo grind. See that essay on spoons, which applies to someone with my chronic health problems as well. After putting all those sixty hour work weeks overhauling lenses to get ready for the new filters, I was utterly wiped out, and then had to prepare my home for houseguests. So other than posting one to two blog posts a week, for fun and content-building rather than any concerted effort to make up lost Squidcome, I’ve been off my online writing routine completely. Once the houseguests are gone and I’ve recovered, I can really make a start.

Maybe it’s time to start taking this blog in a new direction – towards the sustaining and sustainable independent platform for content writing and information sharing on the Internet? So many people are now minded to stop the sharecropping and start the smallholding!

Heh. Every report and email communication with HQ henceforth should have it in the signature line or something.

Thank you, thank you, for the Spoons thing. Yes, everyone really needs to read that.
