Senior Squids – for lensmasters over age 50

There’s a new Senior Center in town… right here in the Squidosphere. All lensmasters age fifty or older are invited to participate. Our new logo is the creation of Drifter 0658. I was surprised how many of our Senior Squids have artistic talent!

Quite naturally I’ve made a lens for the Senior Squids, though most of our networking takes place in a Ning.Com community. It is all explained with a link on that lens.

Fortunately lensmaster Katherine, another artist, is helping to make the community warm and welcoming as she’s administered other Ning groups and knows what she’s doing more than I do (this is my first Ning admin experience.)

So why do lensmasters over the age of 50 like to hang out together? Well, there’s some comfort in knowing we’re not the only ones of our age group getting into this Squidoo thing. Also it is fun to share with others who have the same world-view as you do . . . and anyone not born that long ago won’t have the same perspective of the world as it was in the fifties and sixties, and how much it has changed since then.

We’re a fine group of old-timers who are still very young at heart. . . . young enough to appreciate all the opportunities Squidoo gives us. We’re embarking on a new series of challenges and will be thrilled to welcome new members to our “older but no less bolder” group.

More next time…….

    Okay, it’s official, I am stalking. I love all I have read this afternoon, but I really need to get back to creating another lens.

    Thanks for all the great info you provide to us semi-newbies.

    I think having a squid-group for seniors is a great idea.

    I am 66, hope I’m not too old for you. I want to visit.

    I think I’ll join. I really need to learn
    what I am doing.

    I have only been doing this for a little while
    so far-lots more that I need to know.

    Carmel
