 Comfortdoc’s New Lens: FreeRice - Donate Free Rice

Help end world hungerThe lens that I created yesterday was for the FreeRice project.

It is a fun way to learn some new words by playing the FreeRice Game and being able to donate free rice.

For each word you get right, FreeRice donates 20 grains of rice to the United Nations World Food Programme.

I manage to get to a level where I donated 1000 grains of rice.

Comfortdoc Notes: Sidebar Widgets

I’m having fun customizing the Sidebar Widgets on Comfortdoc on Squidoo.

The Widgets I was able to find available for use were (listed alphabetically):

Amazon Shwcs. 1 (Allows you to feature Amazon Products)
Archives
Calendar
Links
(Blogroll)
Meta
Pages
(Links to permanent Blog pages)
Recent Comments
Recent Posts
Recent Projects
(Maybe the Recent Tags ?)
RSS

Social Bookmarks
Tag Cloud
Top Commentators

The Widgets I decided to use, in the order listed were:

Recent Posts
Archives
Calendar
Recent Comments
Blogroll
RSS to My Top Lenses
Search
Meta
Tag Cloud
Social Networks

Popular Tags

It looks like the widgets give us a lot of options for customizing the blog. I’d probably like to see being able to add our avatar, add an image and add HTML code (list where the blog is indexed).

Maybe this will go on the wish list.

Welcome to Comfortdoc on Squidoo.

Comfortdoc SquidI’ve setup the Squidtop blog to keep you posted on the Latest New Lenses, News Updates and Notes from Comfortdoc / Lensdoc.

Squidtop looks like it is going to be a great new addition to the tools available to Squidoo lensmasters to help get the word out about new lenses and updates to our lenses.

A big thanks to Loyalis et al. on another developing another great Squidoo resource for the lensmasters.

News Updates

Learning about blogging and the blogosphere is one of my goals for the summer. I’ve been actively blogging on two blogs this month, both of which had challenges.

The first is Ruminations of an Online Instructor / MD, the edublog that I set up in April, which thankfully is also in Wordpress, so I’m familiar with the format.

The second is My Green Doc Blog that I set up in honor of Earth Day.

I’ll be posting updates and new lenses as they become available.

I’ve just joined Squidtop!

I’ve just joined Squidtop!

It looks like this is going to be a great way to ‘help showoff their newest lenses, and brag about their Squidoo progress.”

Congrats to Loyalis et al. on another great Squidoo product.
