the SquidMercial!

So we decided we'd make a video about Squidoo - and well, duh, the only way to talk about Squidoo is to talk about its lensmasters and their lenses. We're serious believers in following the old "show, don't lecture endlessly" rule, and so why show our boring mugs or some wonky, animated squid dude when we could feature you?!?!

The whole video will be user-generated (in true Squidoo spirit!) - the lensmasters (in black or orange Squidoo colors) put up a 10 second deal on YouTube, complete with the URL of their fave lens, send us the link at squidmercial@gmail.com, and then we stick it all together, add some funky lensmaster-befitting music, and release it to the world....

More seriously - Squidoo's built solely on user-generated content - its lensmasters determined Squidoo's content, it's personality, where Squidoo went and where Squidoo will go - it only makes sense that when we want to brag about Squidoo, we have to brag about the lensmasters!
