I made it! 50 Squidoo lenses!!

50 Squidoo lenses, with two weeks to go to the deadline for applications for Giant Squid. I will be making more, just in case, but it is a huge relief to have made the magic 50 with time to spare.

I had planned that my 50th lens would be My Squidoo Story but I ended up publishing that as Lens #43, due to a RocketMoms task that required a Lensography. As this lens was already under construction, (and about a third already completed) I made the decision to publish sooner, in order to save time.

So that left me having to decide what to do for #50. I knew I wanted it to be an extra special lens but was struggling to come up with something a bit different. However, it was not until a couple of days ago that an idea hit me.

I was walking up to Lizzie’s school as she had forgotten to take in a project and I was thinking about our local Community. This then evolved into thinking about Squidoo as a Community. I had already started a thread on the SquidU Forum, called: OK Time to lighten up – give me ONE THING you LOVE about Squidoo and there were some great posts.

So then I thought, it would be so easy to make Lens #50 a “ME” lens but what about making it a “WE” lens – a true Community lens. The lens started out as series of quotes from Lensmasters, but then it evolved as I started thinking about all the various Communities within Communities that are either on Squidoo or linked to Squidoo.

So here it is, my 50th Lens:
