"In the history of america, one common factor has been used whenever costs get too high for something - competition. Telecoms? - stagnated until it ATT and the Bells were broken up. Caused huge price wars, better service etc. Railroads? - Same (ignoring other macro factors that affected the whole industry) The Reason that healthcare costs spiral so badly is because there is ALREADY so much government intervention in the system that it has made entering the medical industry incredibly cost prohibitive for potential competitors. The current plan basically seeks to reduce competition even further. This is a good thing how?" - Joe

"This is the best toolbar for squidoo users, both advanced and newbies alike. I've been beta testing it for the last few weeks and it's indispensable for general lensmastering. Get it. now." - Joe

"Colleen, I agree that it can have SOME impact, especially in non-competitive query spaces (or low competition spaces). That’s one of the reasons that Squidoo is powerful. However, I bet that you use the terms ‘washington, real estate, and news’ throughout your lens as well (Especially in the Title and other headers). I DO think that the URL can help ‘classify’ a lens as well as get it ranked. Is /wii going to be more useful than /4576 on a lens about the wii? Sure. Use all the tools at your disposal, Just don’t get blinded into thinking there is only ‘one way’. Thanks for the comment!" - Joe

"the concepts in this post definitely still apply today. I’m still using the same basic concepts to get lenses (and other webpages) indexed and ranking." - Joe

"Yep, this still works." - Joe

"@jeffryv How many extremely useful lenses have you found with MLM ads on them ? Obviously, i can’t stop people from using tip jars, and Spirituality and Susanna both provide great examples of what I was trying to illustrate by appropriate tip jar locations." - Joe

"The Chevron across the street had one of those digital price displays. I bet the shell employees got pretty riled up when everytime they walked out and reached way up high to change the price, someone in chevron would just push a button, lol." - Joe

Good Short Interview with Matt Cutts from google talking about innovation. - Joe

"http://en.gravatar.com/signup is where you sign up. It enables an avatar on any Wordpress blog that has avatars in comments (Including Squidtop!). You can set up multiple e-mail addys in one account and varying avatars for each e-mail or one avatar to rule them all :). It’s definitely worth checking out." - Joe

"Frankie, did you use the same email that you have registered with your Gravatar account?" - Joe

Great desktop based application for monitoring multiple websites with a sweet interface. It's like google analytics on your desktop, but prettier, and live... - Joe

A couple months ago, Seth Godin wrote a blog post about critical mass, and how it applies to social networking. There was this particular paragraph that - Joe

"A great post on why it is better to focus your energy on a few social sites or networks than spreading your energy thin across a big pile of them." - Joe

I must have a crazy british talking robot... everyone should have a dalek methinks.. - Joe

Thought this was a good little trick for managing a lot of my squidoo accounts. - Joe from Bookmarklet

"As someone who is quickly approaching the 200 dollar a day level I can vouch that Jennifer has the process spot on. I’ve used different tools and resources to get there, but that only serves to validate the method. I would like to mention that focus is especially important. It’s okay to be in a bunch of different verticals but unless you finish what you start, it will really slow your project. Several sites I own were launched in haste and I have had to spend hundreds of hours fixing them when if I had done it correctly from the beginning it would have probably only taken an extra day or so per site. The bright side to situations like that is that you don’t make the same mistakes again, just learn how to make new ones captain squids last blog post..Can Squidoo Make you $500 in one day? Yep." - Joe

The comprehensive argument against Barack Obama - Joe

Don't know what's more sad... the fact that the driver got into a one-car wreck on a sunday morning in New Orleans while drunk or the fact that stealing water meters became the focus of the story... - Joe

Some pretty sweet new widgets adapted for the clearspring networkwor including some 'walled garden' sites like Squidoo. Pretty neat. - Joe

"Nancy, when you click the ‘get and share’ and choose the squidoo icon, what are you seeing? You can also try to click on the asterisk next to the ‘get and share’ words. The asterisk should let you change the settings. Moby, If i remember correctly it can take up to a few business days. When I first signed up it was really quick though. If you don’t see an e-mail by wednesday or so it might be worth filing a help ticket." - Joe

"Damon, you can use any EPN campain id you have in your Ebay Partner Network account. When you opt to place the widget on a lens, the widget asks you for a search term and an EPN id. the EPN id ties sales from the widget to your account." - Joe

"alas, the domain was taken" - Joe
