In my experience, lenses are not that great, because they take ages to even get indexed (must be because of the mayor amount of spam that goes on in there), but if you can get traffic to them they may work.

good luck, and happy 2010.

I'm glad to see some other Squidoo Expats here. You may see more to come.

Curious if it is worth your time, I ran across info on it and didn't know if we could benefit from it.

How many Amazon capsules are allowed per how many words? I don't care personally, I never made much on Amazon. But on a few of the lenses that came over, they are almost all Amazon capsules, with maybe 200 words. I tried to tell one person in a nice way that it was an interesting topic, but that...
