Because Squidoo was not a bad idea and it gets sold to HubPages you have the opportunity to play with it again and make it better. In the place of lenses, you will put the idea of glasses using the cognitive glasses concept explained here. So the users can be named glasses masters instead of lens masters that was the name of squidoo.com users.

It helps to go deeper into the history of this platform and how it worked and what story the people that were excited about it told themselves. It helps to understand genres and to make this new kind of Squidoo specifically for the smallest possible set of persons. The analogy will help you have new ideas that could make it better and if you want to succeed with this project of rebuilding a new Squidoo you must understand how ideas spread online with the help of the network effect; If the first 10 persons who will be in front of this new platform don't share it, you should relook your job and see how to improve it. I don't know how you will name it but this could be more successful than Pinterest, Twitter, or Facebook but don't try to scale first try to be specific instead by applying the concepts behind This is marketing. Do it on purpose with a practice for that you have useful resources in this book.
