Remodeling
I have been remodeling the Mall Group, as I have announced here. It is a VERY BIG PROJECT for me.
Growing Fast!
The Mall group is growing faster than I can get the remodeling done. We now have over 500 members and getting close to 50 applications per week for membership.
Gaps
There are clearly some gaps in our 'shopping coverage' which I am interested in suggestions about how to fill.
Duplicates
There are also an enormous number of duplicate lenses applying. This should be of great concern to every lensmaster in the Mall, and yet the participation and interaction between Mall members is almost non-existent.
Serious Business People
Having FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE as a small business owner, with the ENORMOUS DIFFERENCE Squidoo can make with the success of a business or a project, it seems to me that it is only the serious business people who should be supported by the joint efforts of an active and vibrant Mall group.
I will discuss these things in ensuing posts. I am very concerned that much of your hard work is being duplicated and plagiarized. I believe that serious people who want to make the most of Squidoo, and the groups they belong to, will be able to brainstorm ways of dealing with this problem and still succeed.
I expect and anticipate your suggestions and comments.

Hi Margaret,
I do have a suggestion. The way I understand, you're creating new groups for each category? i.e. Furnishings, instead of the url being squidoomall-6 why not use a litte seo and call it Home-Furnishings-The-Mall or something like that? anyway, just a suggestion :)
Thanks for your hard work!
Christine
