Updating Squidoo Lenses

Posted by Christine on March 18, 2009

It’s been a while since I’ve been on this blog. I think I just had to take a break -too many sites and things to keep up with.

Anyway, lately I’ve been coming back to squidoo lenses I had made and upgrading them a bit with more information, images, fun gear, etc.

The two I’ve worked on so far are:

1- scooters! I got one earlier this year and have been riding it off and on depending on weather. It’s great fun and inspired me to go back and upgrade this lens a bit.

2- Corto Maltese. I’m a great fan of European comics and Hugo Pratt’s Corto Maltese adventures are extremely famous all over the world. I’m working on listing the albums for now. I’ve added a few images too for a better visual experience. Next will be some historical context for each album.

Take a minute to go through these squidoo lenses. I’m putting a lot of work into them and rather enjoy the way they’re coming out. Hope you do to.

Squidoo #3: Corto Maltese

Posted by Christine on June 12, 2008

Squidoo lens #3 is up and running. This one is about Corto Maltese, the sailor / adventurer character drawn by Hugo Pratt.

Son of a British sailor and a gypsy, Corto sails the high seas and travels the land from continent to continent, following the adventure wherever it might take him.

If you are unfamiliar with this series, hop over to Corto Maltese, Gentlemen Sailor Adventurer and see for yourself… and if you are familiar, then go see it anyway.  :-)

I’m getting the hang of it now, as far as basics are concerned. I see a lot of variety in format though, when I surf around other lenses, so I know for sure there is a lot more to this than I am doing so far. Best way to learn is to jump in and do it, right?
