Can I Stumble a Squidoo Lens?
Yes you can and you should! It is a nice way of saying “thank you for sharing your knowledge” or I love your work.
If you have Stumble Upon’s toolbar installed you just click on the “thumb up” icon.
If you don’t then on top of the lenses you will see a row of Social Media icons, the first is Stumble Upon, click on it and you either see a pop-up (Macs) or you see a drop down menu (PCs), fill out the boxes and click share. It is very fast done, so I do encourage you to use that feature.
Below a screen shot from my lens: Holidays in Malta

Squidoo Art – Squidoodles Anyone?
There are some graphic designers that have gone mad creating all kind of Squidoo Art, using the orange Squidoo logo = Squidoodles.
Below are some fine lenses I found with the fine art:
- http://www.squidoo.com/squidart by lensmaster “tagsforkids”
- http://www.squidoo.com/squidarttoo by lensmaster “tagsforkids”
- http://www.squidoo.com/squidoodles by lensmaster “Comfortdoc”
- http://www.squidoo.com/squidoodles-2
Both lensmasters have released their art work under Creative Commons License but please check each lens for rights.
My favourite is of course Kiva Lender Squid from http://www.squidoo.com/SquidKiva

Which was made for the group SquidKiva .
If you know of other lenses with Squidoodles please let us know in the comment box, thanks.
