Did I read that our transferred lenses would retain their original publishing dates?
Mine didn't. Near as I can tell, almost all of them now bear the date of my last update of them at Squidoo, which was two weeks ago.
Much as I appreciate making my old content look much newer than it is, it's a little weird to have hubs that are dated two weeks ago, with comments that are dated three or more years ago.
I'm also concerned about what this might do to any duplicate content that's out there, since my articles from 2006 now look like they were published in 2014.
Oh. Duh. The correct dates do appear in my account. I didn't realize that when they're listed on our profiles, they bear the date they were last updated.
Sorry. This is resolved, but I'm not deleting it, in case anyone else has the same panic attack.

Just something I noticed. The hubs that have been edited by Editbot have already picked up more traffic than what is usual for them, even after dismissing my view to see the changes. We also know that Google loves fresher content. Is it possible that our Google overlords see this as a sort of site...

I just want to make sure I am clear on the transition information. My stuff transferred overnight, so that means that I have 4 months to clear up skulls etc before the hubs get moderated, correct?I am going to have to completely revamp quite a few former lenses due to the fact that much of my...

I'm not knocking anybody (or maybe I am) but I have seen several "Hubs" that transferred from Squidoo that are composed of nothing more than very thin content and a whole bunch of merchandising links (and even one lady who pimped her own Etsy page multiple times in her "Hub")....
