Squido or Hubpages?

I actually find both of them to be a royal pain in the ass. Squidoo seems to love using the banhammer and hubpages has now started deleting accounts that have what they consider to be too many backlinks. Some sites with as few as 150 links are being deleted.
If you are using hubpages for linkwheels and pushing links to them to strengthen the page, you may find that your hub is going to disappear. You are better off to build your own site on your own hosting and build an asset that you own.

Squidoo is always dofollow , hubpages is nofollow till you have a hubscore of 75.
Right now , my posts on Hubpages are getting a TON more traffic than squidoo , but as others have said , hubpages doesn't want 'un-natural links' so you'll have to be careful with how you link from them.

A Hub tends to have 5 ad units on the page and you have to write a fair amount so that this page is not run as nofollow. Squidoo has higher PR and provide better looking pages.
One reason why I wouldn't discount HubPages though, is that a Hub is ranking second at Google.com for the monster term "Acai" and so there is obvious potential there.

I like HubPgae much better because I find that with a few backlinks you can get the Hub to rank much better.
i prefer squidoo for promoting and building links, because of the immediate do follow. And so far i've found i need to be very careful with the promotion of hubpages... already had a few banned for "improper" promotion
cool firefox extension i came across today: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5687/
it'll highlight the no-follow and do-follow links on a page...

When you guys talk about links are you talking about inbound or outbound? I would assume inbound as if you put too many outbounds on any page you lose the link juice, but please clarify.
