I'm Quite Pinterested

Lately, I have been hearing a lot of hype about the site "Pinterest". I looked into it and wasn't very interested, but was told that I should request an invitation to join. I did, and two days later I received an invitation to create an account and start "pinning". I didn't quite understand it at first, but was able to catch on very quickly with their easy-to-follow instructions.

Pinterest is essentially a cork/pin board for websites. You select a photo from a site you want to save, give it a brief description, and "pin" it to one ofhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif your boards by a designated category. I currently have five boards based on Travel, Recipes, Things I Like, etc.

I find it to be a very fun, creative, and simple way to not only organize websites in bookmark-like fashion, but it also it a unique was to express yourselves and your interests. I haven't pinned much and my board(s) already point an abstract collage of my interests, likes, and lifestyle. I would highly recommend it for anyone looking for a creative outlet, a way to organize, and a way to share ideas and websites.
