Squidoo and a Blog Move

I was using WordPress as a blog platform, but it seems too complicated to use the features. I even asked my 13 year old son to help, and he couldn't figure it out. That's a bad sign. I mean, he's practically a cyborg, hooked at the wrist to his laptop! If he can't figure it out, then I have no chance whatsoever.

So, I switched to Blogger this morning. The features seem easier to use for a newb like me, and the layout looks good. I know a few people who use Blogger as a platform, and they like it. I pasted a few posts from my old blog into this one, and I'll delete the other one in a few seconds.

Squidoo

Squidoo-what fun!

I've never used Squidoo before, but on the weekend I created two lenses on writing. They can be found here:

• http://www.squidoo.com/MikesGhostwritingServices
• http://www.squidoo.com/ghostwritingbusiness

If you're reading this, it would be wonderful if you stopped by my lenses and left a comment and some feedback. I worked on them the entire weekend. At the top of the lens, you can also leave a rating.

Squidoo rocks. It's almost like having a hobby. You can create a lens on anything you want, and it's fun to do...at least for me. I like reading the comments I get on my lenses and the people who use Squidoo seem very friendly and helpful.

I was so excited that I began my own Group called The Readers and Writers Group on Squidoo. At first I was hesitant, but I'd like to give back to the Squidoo community, and frankly, a lot of the groups are just used as promotional tools for the group leaders. I'd like to create a group that's about the members. Not all about me, but us as a community of like-minded people.

Well, that's all for now. Thanks for reading.
