Happy Hubiversary!

Happy Squidoo + HubPages Anniversary

Ex-Lensmasters Are Now 1-Year-Old Hubbers!

I have a fun tidbit to share today: this week marks the 1-Year anniversary of the HubPages/Squidoo merger. Hubbers who came over with the Squidoo migration have now been members of the site for an entire year! Does time fly or what? The HubPages Team would like to take this opportunity to wish ex-Lensmasters a very happy Hubbiversary and to offer our thanks for sticking around and giving HubPages a try. We're very glad so many Squidoo transplants are still with us! You guys make the HubPages Community a better, more interesting, and more diverse place. Keep up the great writing!
