Excellent Squidoo Guest Editorial on my new techie internet marketing and internet how-to info sister blog. If Squidoo interests you, you may want to visit over there:
And/or go straight to the real thing, which is Bob the Teacher’s Squidoo Secrets course (which is outstanding and features a great deal of info for absolutely no charge or at least did last time I checked): www.squidoocash.info
I love Squidoo! Such fun, and all those cool things you can do with them. Best thing since sliced cheese or take-out sushi or whatever else you might like.
BUT: There are a few things to watch out for… They’re really no-brainers once you come to think of it, but if you are the least bit distracted, they might trip you up, just as they have tripped me up until I figured out what went on.
1. When you start a lens, make sure you have enough time for at least 4 modules or so. Why? If you try to leave it like that, Squidoo might let someone else come along and take it over! And after just coming up with a cool lens name, you don’t want that, do you?
2. When you put in links, be sure to remember to put in the http bit! Why? Try to leave it out and watch what happens: Click on the link: It will take you to an “under construction” Squidoo lens under the name of the link and Squidoo will invite you to take it over! Ouch!
3. Remember to publish! I mean, remember to hit the “publish” button. Because if you don’t, your lens will remain exactly like it was before you put in all that hard work with your revision. Ouch again!
Are those biggies? Not for some people. But they can be for you if you think your links lead back to your website and what they really do is invite your hoped-for visitors to build their own Squidoo lens — with YOUR website’s name on it! Not only does this defeat the purpose, it also makes you look unprofessional. (To prevent any such snafus, check out the info below on Bob’s Squidoo Secrets training course.)
And, of course, please do check out some of my assorted Squidoo lenses:
My self-help lens, my new self-help lens, my secret to riches lens, my secret to happiness lens, my Abraham-Hicks lens, and so on.
I’m especially thrilled with the YouTube videos on some of them. I hope you’ll enjoy them as much as I do! 
Now if you want become a real expert lensmaster at Squidoo AND be able to use Squidoo to its fullest potential, here’s the full scoop on Squidoo Secrets and you should definitely take a look! I just did and immediately got it. Bob is a GREAT teacher and his Squidoo training is the best!

I wish you all very happy holidays and many blessings.
I was going to post a happy-making YouTube Video, but unfortunately, it caused problems with the formatting of my blog and completely ruined the lay-out.
So here’s what I will do: I’ll post it on a Squidoo lens!
Specifics TBA. For now, check out my primary Squidoo lens. I’ll post an update once I have the video up.
Well, I put it up, but on a new lens secret2happiness because I just couldn’t part with the video I have on my primary selfhelpstuff Squidoo lens (Esther on a rampage on going with the flow).
Well, gosh, while I’m plugging my new lenses, check out my Abraham lens as well. Another great video! Won’t tell you what’s on it. You gotta look!
Meanwhile, I hope your holidays are filled with bliss and love!

I’ve just discovered a new toy! Squidoo! It’s like blogs, but even easier and with lots of built-in tools. One page at a time, and you can create as many pages (which they call “lenses”) as you like.
So I’ve started with a few… 
They’re still a bit works in progress, but feel free to check them out:
I’ve got three so far:
Selfhelpstuff (sister page to this blog)
Why don’t you check them out while you have the links handy?
In fact, why should you? I tell you why. Both the selfhelpstuff lens and the Abraham lens have a YouTube video of Abraham/Esther on a rampage. Both of them (yes, they are different ones, obviously — what did you think?) very, very cool!
Take a look!
And hey, why not build your own, right here:
Have a fabulous day, and have fun playing with Squidoo too!
