Pinterest Anyone?

by Kay~Kacey on 1/17/2011

So, are any of you using Pinterest? They say it’s the place to catalog all things you love. (in a social media kind of way.) You place a bookmarklet on your browser and any time you see something that interest you, you “pin” it to one of your “boards” on Pinterest.

Like I have boards for Decorating, Photography Props, Photography Inspiration, Crafty Things, Branding, Sayings and Quotes, etc. Really fun. I signed up with my Facebook account and I guess it ties into your friends on Facebook (if they are also on Pinterest) and shows you things they’ve pinned. Besides pinning something you find on the internet, you can “repin” something you see on Pinterest and add it to one of your boards.

Boards show up like this:

Boards on Pinterest

You can follow anyone’s board that interests you. I think it will really be great for grabbing decorating ideas, photography inspiration and things like that. Yes, like I need another online time sink, but…whatever. It’s really fun, and I’ve found some amazing things and fabulously inspiring photography on there. You can search by keywords, or just browse through what they serve up to you. Fun.

Are any of you using Pinterest? If so, leave your link below and I’ll follow you on there. It’s fun! Try it! (It might take a few days for you to get an invite after you sign up.)

Here’s my Pinterest link if anyone wants to follow my eclectic choice of boards.
