Pinterest (the website)
Pinterest drives more traffic than google+, youtube and linkedln combined
Are there any pinners here? I'm a steady addict lately. There seems to be more female than male participants. “Never grow a wishbone, daughter, where your backbone ought to be.” – Clementine Paddleford |

RE: Pinterest (the website)
What do you like about it? I saw it on the news yesterday so just heard about it for the first time. As someone who recently left Facebook, I'm mildly interested, but wasn't sure I caught on to the whole idea of what it's about?

Go to http://pinterest.com Click "Help" Click "About" (or just go to http://pinterest.com/about/help/) There seems to be a lot of explanation, but I don't yet 'get it'.

Guess that means I've reached the age of Old Codger? I guess I was looking more for, what does LJ like about it, and then maybe I can figure out if it's for me or not.

RE: Pinterest (the website)
So you can create 'boards' on your profile where you stick photos in them. Each board is categorized (home decor, sewing, automobiles, sports, crafts, art, recipes, whatever) Each photo comes from an actual website about that item (so in my recipe board I have a great chill and when I click the photo it brings me to the site with the recipe).
This part is cool because it categorized and cut down my lengthy bookmark tab on my browser. But really I love it to see the ideas people have and get the creative juices flowing for projects. Also, some pretty funny stuff comes up quite often. There is a lot of jesus love, but atheist stuff comes up too (think like the funny photos thread here on TTA). Really, it's a visual glory board with how-to's and information linked to the photos behind the scenes. I can see how it wouldn't interest someone who maybe isn't even a little bit into the majority of the items which seem to be fashion, design, recipes and animals. “Never grow a wishbone, daughter, where your backbone ought to be.” – Clementine Paddleford |

It seems pretty interesting- sort of like an online version of OneNote.
