So, if you can’t tell I am a bit of a visual person. I LOVE looking at and creating beautiful things. However I am a bit of a scatter brain. I would find a picture or a recipe, fall in love and then never be able to find it again. I needed a virtual file cabinet for all of my “loves.” Then Pinterest walked into my life!
What is Pinterest you ask? It’s a social catalog service, basically a virtual pin board for all of your “loves.”
{Click on the image to visit my board at Pinterest}
The way it works is, you have a “Pin It” button in your bookmarks bar, when you see something you like, you click in the button. The image can be from anywhere blogs, websites, other Pinterest members. You create boards for all different types of categories and voila you have instant image organization!
Now if I could just get the rest of my life as organized I would be one happy lady!!
How fun! I will have to check it out.
Thanks for posting – I'll go check it out!
This is precisely what I need! And I'm totally with you on wishing organizing everything could be this easy.
That's great. Its really nice how you organized everything linto catagories!
Thank you so much for posting. I totally have that problem too. This will make things so simple.
this looks really cool, i am going to have to check it out!
I also love this! I found this months ago when someone pinned my project on their board! When I received the notification I was surprised and excited! Fun!
You just made my life a whole lot easier! This is exactly what I've needed. Thanks for sharing!
oh my frick, I might just have to go there!!!
um… this looks like the most brilliant time water i've ever seen! and i love it! i hope it snows this weekend so i can play with this tool 🙂
OH my goodness. I need this. I have so many bookmarked pages in my browser and they are all jumbled together. It makes for a headache to go back and find a certain tutorial or for sharing ideas on my blog. THANK YOU for posting about pinterest!! I'm definitely going to check it out : )
This is EXACTLY what I need! Thanks for sharing. I do have a binder at home of recipes just from the internet, but it's getting a little full and I feel like it can be a waste of paper sometimes. This is a much better way to keep all these things organized!
That is an awesome site! I think I will have to go check it out. Thanks for sharing!
No stinking way! I was just thinking yesterday that I needed a better way to organize all of my favorites in Google Reader. I hate that I can't categorize things there. This is just what I need! Thanks for sharing!
I love pinterest! I got invited to it by Simply Modern Mom back in the spring. So cool! What's your user name? I'd love to follow your boards.
What a neat idea! I love the yellow and gray board! Thanks for sharing!
I love pinterest – and I love new boards to follow!
How cool is this! Usually I just bookmard everything and then never look it up again. I really need the pictures!
thank you thank you thank you! I need this badly. Going there now 🙂
love pinterest!!
This sounds awesome! Maybe it would prevent me from loading my computer up with pictures. I am off to try it out now!
I just signed up today and am loving it! Although I fear this may effect my sleeping habits 😉
I am also totally addicted to Pinterest. Can't wait to check out your boards.
Oh thanks for sharing about this!!
Oh my Gosh! I have been wanting something like this! I have all my blogs in a reader, and as I am going through my posts, there are always several that I want to remember, but my only real option is Google Notebook – which I haven't exactly figured out yet – and it only really bookmarks the link. So if the link every went down….then I'd be outta luck! Thanks so much, can't wait to try this out.
I love this!
Wow this sounds great! I can't wait to check this out either.
This is fantastic, and I love your choices, Thanks for sharing, I will definitely try this!
So it sounds great but I went and tried to sign up and they sent me an email saying it is still a private beta and that they would send me an invite soon. Am I dumb? Could you maybe invite me if that is how it works? makenzie_lee19(at)hotmail(dot)com. Thanks!!
I, too, was told that I had to be on a waiting list for this. Bummer. I was all excited to try it out.
Thanks so much for this, I love Pinterest, and I have you to thank for it! I am linking up to you today on my blog!
