I was chosen.

The email arrived quietly yesterday, among hundreds of others that I will file and probably never read, due to lack of time and general sense of meh.

But the words “Squid Angel” jumped out at me.

I’ve been neglecting my Squidoo lenses since not terribly long after becoming a Giant Squid months ago, due to aforementioned meh and absolute aversion to spending additional hours before a computer monitor after a long day of staring at text and graphics on my huge (yet still never quite big enough) Apple Cinema display at work.

Now that I have special super secret powers, however, the lure of Squidoo is impossible to fend off.

(Plus I get another cool badge.)

If you’re a Squidoo lensmaster and you have a very special lens you’d like me to review, post a link to it in the comments.

Be warned: Angels can not only offer blessings but can also smite your lenses with dings. Don’t send me crap unless you’re prepared to suffer the consequences. I’m not as angelic as the term implies.

But chances are, unless you’re fool enough to actually send me a flaming bag of dog crap lens, I’ll just ignore it rather than take negative action.

I’m not inclined to leave a lot of “you’ve been blessed” messages in guestbooks as I quickly grow weary of entering captcha codes when I’m already logged in at a site, but when you get a blessing your lens will receive a temporary boost in LensRank all the same.

[Not sure what the heck Squidoo is all about? I posted this how-to blog months ago and sort of forgot about it, but it tells you what to do if you'd like to give lensmastering a try.]

I’m excited.
