That was one of the original claims, not sure they shout too much about it now though. The advantage over a wiki style page is that you are the sole editor and no one can come along and corrupt your entry, also you can monetize it
One of the popular uses of squidoo is to make 'fan' pages, whether for your favorite person, film, book, etc. Using the squidoo wikipedia module you can also grab content from wikipedia to do so too! Then add a bit about why you think the person/film/book is great in the intro, add a poll to get people to interact, or a plexo (like a poll but list shows in order of popularity), add a few poloroids, use the talk bubble to add some quotes, the blackbox to higlight a few facts, and add a amazon and ebay module to link to a few relevant items. If the subject has already been covered on squidoo, see if you can do better, or do it from a different angle.
