Becoming the Top Squid is a long road and there are no shortcuts, however, you need to take the right steps in the right direction in order to stay on track.
SquidUp.org is a Digg style Squidoo Lens directory launched to Beta on October 13, 2009. You can Discover Hot New Lenses and Submit Your Own Lenses to be discovered. We will get you started in the right direction. Your Lenses will be indexed by Google in less than 24 hours and your Lens will be visited and rated by other visitors and members of SquidUp.
"All this sounds great, but give me more!". You will get Quality Backlinks from SquidUp which are very important for having a good page rank on Squidoo as well as Google and other search engines. Plus, the traffic will increase to your Lenses.
I will be using this lens as a place to discus what you like and what to expect next with SquidUp. I will make your suggestions happen so you can have a better overall experience with using SquidUp.
As you know, we are now in Beta, so I would really appreciate if you please report any bugs or issues that you may experience. SquidUp has been tested and known to work as expected on Google Chrome, Firefox 3.x, IE7.0, IE8.0 and Safari. Ideal screen resolution 1280x800 pixels or more.

1. A modified theme. I call it the Midnight Blue.
2. Added a Featured section at the top to give more visibility to member lenses.
3. Random button. It does exactly what it is supposed to do. Try it out...
4. Improved user profile section.
5. Fixed a few bugs.
UPDATE:
1. Added a footer section
2. Fixed a few more minor layout issues.
I had also created a Digg style toolbar for SquidUp....but I had to remove it from this update since Squidoo does not open inside a frame. It's a bummer because I spent a lot of time on it but ended up not working for Squidoo only.
Your opinion matters. Please tell me what you like or dislike. Also, suggest any new features to be included in the next release.
Your friend,

One problem I am having. I can't get the mouse to scroll across the drop down menus fully. It always closes before I can scroll over more than 3. I'm on a laptop with a built in mouse pad. I like that it doesn't cover up the text body further down. It's annoying that I can't narrow down what I am looking at into a subtopic.
