AJ is Always Juggling

Yesterday saw the announcement of a new group of Angels on Squidoo. As far as I can see, only nine Angels remain from the cohort appointed in April and I am really proud to be one of them. This leaves 23 new haloes being polished up (or being retrieved from storage) ready to take to the Squidoo sky.

Following feedback received from the last group of Angels, each Angel will only have three categories to watch over this time around instead of five, which should make the task of helping the “cream rise to the top” less onerous. The new Squidoo Guidelines should also make things easier as lenses on various Squiddont topics are prevented from being published.

I must confess I did think long and hard before I applied to continue as an Angel. The job does have huge responsibilities. As Kimberly said:

These Angels are your new ambassadors to great things on Squidoo. They’ll be spending the next few months blessing great lenses, educating you on best practices, and spreading the word about how to use Squidoo. Look for them…everywhere!

And being “everywhere” does take up some time!

Having be re-appointed as an Angel, I thought it was time to check my Squidoo Angels lens and see if my views about what makes a Bless-worthy lens have changed. No, not really!

I also added a full list of all the Angels to my Squidoo Angel lens and was sad to note some very special people who have “retired” and other worthy applicants who were not successful this time around.

I now await with bated breath to see which categories I will be watching over this time around!
