Squidoo is now a piece of S*%$%t!

I have been writting on squidoo for nearly 15 months. I like to write about the tools and  techniques I use in my art.  I was only getting $2 monthly but I only had got up to 70 lenses.  It was something I believed that if I just wrote 200 or 300 more lenses, I could get a decent part time check.  Recently, that all changed.  They announcex they will be scanning lenses for spam and keyword stuffing.  At first I said that is a good idea.  That was until they l locked down 8 of my perfectly OK lenses for NO REASON!  I saw the writing on the wall and knew that I will be  spending much more time editing than writing new content. Therefore I will be stuck making $2 FOREVER!  Not going to happen.  My content will just have to sit and rot in cyberspace.  I did the same with Hubpages.  I am just waiting until next year when my earnings reach $50 which is their
minimum payout. I will delete all the hubs and save the good stuff  on my external hard drive. I just have to vent but I needed to face reality that it was never going work out.
