Every week there’s a new social internet sharing platform. The newest one of note is Pinterest which lets people “pin” their favorite photos from the web to share with followers on “boards”. Pinterest has made itself out as ritzy and exclusive requiring members to be invited first(remember when Gmail was this way?). Don’t worry; it’s a fairly quick and easy process for people who want to join so long as you know somebody who’s already on. I’ve been using it for a few weeks both for fun and as a blogging extension to gage its effectiveness at reaching new people.
Once you actually have an account, you’ll see it’s separated into boards you create, name, and edit. These are used for different categories of pins that you create. When people follow you and you follow them, you can pick which boards in particular you’re interested in following. I’ve found most people just follow all of a user’s boards, but this might change as people get more familiar with using Pinterest.
