D&R is all abuzz about this site and I resisted for a long time, but oh my is it addicting.  I've been slowly going through all my bookmarks and pinning things - it's amazing how much nicer things are once organized.  If anyone wants an invite, let me know.  It will be dangerous once I start following other folks.  I don't even make it through my Google Reader each week.  Although I like the quick visuals of pinterest a lot since you can always click through to see more.

Does anyone here use it, I am curious about what you think.

Re: Pinterest

  • i love it! definitely addicting but i've made a few recipes and done a few craft projects from ideas i've found so it has been worthwhile. however, i don't need to swoon over kitchens i'll never have (though i totally still do)

  • I use it- I have like 7 boards, all with a different purpose.  One of them is only stuff for me to make for my nephew.  One of them is for my "someday house".  Then, some of them are more practical- tutorials for things I like or skills I could get better at, recipes I'll make, inspiration quilts, etc.

  • I see this site all over the other boards, but I really haven't looked into it. Anyone feel like giving (a lazy) me an idea what it's all about? Smile

  • It's like a bulletin board, but when you "pin" something you select a picture and it keeps the link for you.  So, instead of mosaicking the refrigerator with recipes we like that I've tried, I can just save them there.  Or, instead of clogging up my bookmarks on my browser, this keeps them all in one place.  

    It is also nice to know what other people with similar interests are doing.  For example, I don't know anyone IRL who quilts with any regularity but I've done half a dozen since teaching myself in the fall.

    Thanks!  I'm gonna have to spend some time this weekend exploring this.  How do I find the other DC nesties to follow them?  Have to know emails?

    I sent you an evite.  I think it's sort of like when gmail first came out.  Personally I think it is annoying, but maybe it really helps build buzz.
