   I'm just retuning to HubPages after a lengthy break, so I'm not ready to join in.  But it sounds like fun and I wanted to wish you all luck in reaching your goals.

   I have too much to do otherwise to keep to any sort of discipline with this but I am doing a lot of new hubs anyway and have just published my third in the last few days. I may get 30 done but it won't be an official entry I am afraid. Good luck to everyone with this!

   To track the #hubchallenge on twitter you can use this free tool http://twitterfall.com/ -- twitterfall does a good job at tracking #hash(s) and it's free. (oh -- auto update in real time).

       oops - sorry guys I got distracted by a phone call and didnt mean to post the above message. What I meant to ask was is there like a guide to hubpages i.e. on Squidoo you have the giant squids that you can read up on to see how to make your lens better etc.  I am not sure where I should be looking on hubpages so if anyone can direct me, that would be great.
       
       And for those of you on twitter who are like me and forget your log in there is a problem with their system generating passwords today but they hope it will be fixed tomorrow.
       
       Gnight everyone as its late here.
       
       Thank you Court and Ryan for getting this challenge going - its fun.

    I've published 6 hubpages so far and have 13 in draft on my hubpages dashboard but I also have 32 all written out on tatty notepads with sketches and allsorts of keyword research and notes.
    
    So I've got to get on with 49 more hubs, but then I have them all planned out anyway because I'm an organized type of freak, just typed in the wrong identifying hubchallenge tag on my first few hubs, but have since sorted this out.
    
    Anyway back to hubbing.....I Can't BE HERE CHATTING IDLE CHAT WHEN THE WORLD NEEDS A 100 MORE HUBPAGES!!!!

    Okay,
    
    #HubChallenge is being outdone by #twitterpornnames.
    
    This cannot stand!
    
    If you are not yet a tweep, it's nothing to join and get started.
    
    
    http://www.Twitter.com
    
    It's free.
    Nothing to download.
    Easy to set up.
    Easy to learn -- you'll know what's going on within minutes.
    And it is a great way to get (social) traffic to your hubs. 
    
    (Social traffic does not click ads , but they will make Google start sending more searchers your way, and searchers do click ads.)
    
    
    Twittering is a great way to blow up the Hub Challenge.
    
    Now, you have to follow people in order to get followers (to read your updates) but that is easy!  I follow about 890 tweeps, and I have 555 followers, and I only joined on Wednesday, May 6.
    
    That's my piece.  Everybody have fun with your Hub Challenge hubs!  And don't fear Twitter.  It's your friend.

       Good luck to you, too. I don't think it's too late. Apparently there's no official signup or anything. Just put the HubChallenge tag in your hubs for the next 30 days and hope for the best. It might help to message the OP, though.
       
       By the way, I just finished my first one:

    This is just an excerpt from my blog post on todays events on HubPages. I just wanted to share this with everyone.
    
    I have noticed a couple of things with my Hubpages account today in the first day of this challenge. My hubscore is sitting at 91. Yesterday it was at 90. I have noticed a lot of hits from the hub challenge posts today too, 150 hits in all. Not of all these hits were from hubpages either. Several were from other sources, 100hubs.blogspot.com, facebook.com, iconfactory.com, mail.google.com, mail.yahoo.com and twitter.com.
    
    The most amazing thing I noticed today is that I actually made 99 cents in google adsense, just from hubpages. This is totally amazing!!! So, I think this challenge is definitely worth it and it does look like it is working.
