A JustBon Update - 8.14.08

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

A few weeks ago, I managed to complete my 100th lens and at that time I decided that I was going to slow down the lens creations and go back and update a lot of lenses that I had been neglecting for some time. Scanning over my dashboard today, I noticed that all my lenses now rank within the top 100,000 - not bad, I guess, since there now are around 650,000 total lenses. All the updating seems to have paid off. Now I need to address the traffic problem…

One of the things I did to reach my 100 lens goal was to create some lyrics lenses. As I write, I’ve got 16 of them. Most are doing poorly, with only one in my Top 10 lenses, while the others seem to be languishing nearer the bottom of my lens list. I wonder where other Lensmasters are seeing their lyrics lenses rank, and what they’re doing to popularize them?

As I mentioned, I haven’t been able to get out many newly published lenses. I still have 8 in WIP mode, but these are subjects which will need a lot of research before they are ready to go.

As it stands now, I have 107 published lenses, the newest ones being:

JustBons Bottom Twenty Squidoo Lenses

Christian Bale

The 10 Worst Songs Ever

Akron, Ohio

and my contribution to this year’s Olympics:

Alexandre Despatie - Champion Diver

Are These the Worst Songs…Ever?

Monday, August 11th, 2008

I was trolling around on the Web yesterday, randomly looking for some more inspiration for new lenses, when I came upon on a site called spinner.com. They had a section there which named what they believe are the twenty worst songs ever. Well, it wasn’t long before my newest Ever lens was born The 10 Worst Songs Ever, using the songs that they had nominated.

I can’t say that I necessarily agree with all of them, and because of this another light went off in my head. I’ve been thinking about creating another lens for Squidoo’s charitable donations, and maybe a lens where Lensmasters nominate their own choice of worst song might work?

Perhaps if I make the suggestion in the forum that the first 10 Lensmasters t0 post their nomination for worst song will be featured on the lens, all proceeds going to charity. This is all dependent of course on whether I can find a video for the song too. (I’m really thinking out loud here).
