Awesome!!  Easy to add lenses to the list - I really like it!  Got my main 5 added and the site bookmarked so I can keep "roll"ing my favorites & my friends!!

UPDATE...

Skim through the submissions and "roll" other peoples submissions (it's just one click) of the ones you like.

Don't use ALL CAPS for titles.

Make sure the titles aren't too long.

Be mindful of your tags. Make sure they're appropriate.

Use Lensroll.com to roll your best quality lenses. It's for the best of the best.

Surprisingly yes.

ps
I found it amusing though, the no "L337" speak text, from a guy whos nym is in L3375p34K

LMAO

I've been caught!

I really should have gone with Glen as my lensmaster name. And in fact was thinking of changing it, but then I wasn't sure if I'd still be credited with the referrals I was hoping I was getting.

So I am probably, as my daughter calls it, a hypnocrite.

Ack, some linguist I am. I hadn't figured out what N376 meant.

It took me a couple weeks here before I stopped instinctively typing NC376, as if he were some sort of small Starfleet vessel.

OMG... I can't believe I've been mistaken for a Trekkie.

The embarrassment!



I'm a Star Wars fan. So TN376 might be more appropriate. Or even TK421.

Breaking News!

No PR3, not from where I'm looking.

Maybe Lewis misunderstood the conversation I had earlier in the thread? That I was hoping for a 3 in the next PR update.

Maybe this is a good place to ask, maybe not, but perhaps you can tell me: the Mall on Squidoo group has a PR of 5.  What can I expect that to do for the group- any ideas?

In reality, it doesn't do much at all.

Though there are forums full of webmasters who would beg to differ.

Having had a site with both a high position for a very desirable keyword that sent me thousands in traffic per day and it also having a PR of 7 I can say without a doubt that high ranking in the search engines is far more desirable than PR. PR doesn't earn you money. Traffic does.

That is correct. Any backlink not originating from Squidoo or SquidU is going to benefit a lens.

Hey Glen. Wouldn't a link from Squidu count as an offsite link since squidu.com is a seperate domain from squidoo.com?

Excellent job Glen! Did you do all of the design work yourself? The interface feels like it was built on a Drupal core... any hints


Oh one more thing? have you thought about a LR cutoff for submitting lenses as a policy ? What kind of quality are you looking for exactly? Obviously good content, but will lensroll.com have a WIP level so to speak....

I have signed up with lensroll and have entered my two lenses ( as seen below). I think its a wonderful idea and will really rocket. One question though.....what is this karma thing?

thanks in advance

Hi Glen - Congratulations!  Wonderful concept, great design, very user-friendly.  Great job!

What can it do for the groupmaster?  Start selling some PR5 links on your Mall group page to interested outside parties! LOL! 

Yes, that would be the best market to pitch at.

Thank you.

Thanks Glen, I've joined and added one of my best lenses. Will do some rolling as soon as I get a chance.

Oh and thanks to Glen and everyone who created LensRoll, it's such a neat idea!
Take care,
