  • I think of it as: you find things you like.. but instead of adding them to your favorites and going back to look at them later.. you pretend everyone cares what you like and would love to stare at your browsing history.

    Kind of like blogging with less typing.

    Ah, gotcha!  Thanks!  I have an account, but I have no idea how to use it.  I started a board, but I don't know how to "pin" anything.

    You can either repin from other people by hitting repin, or look up how to add a pin it button to your toolbar, and pin from any website. If you google it, you should get step by step instructions.

  • I kind of think of it as an elaborate version of the "bulletin board' they used to have on fb.  I was obsessed with that thing.  I loved buttons!

    BTW, anyone wanna send me a Pinterest invite?  I've heard enough about it to be curious now. *poof*  Got one!  Thanks, Ang!

  • To me, It's like post-it notes for the internet. I find something I like on the web and I post it on my board for quick reference.
