What a phenomenon Pinterest is. Pinterest isn't for everyone. I like to believe my Pinterest is full of amazing things. From workouts to vegan recipes to pilgrim pups, my Pinterest is a wonderland.
So let's talk about this craze:
- Pinterest is for women. Guys sign up for it because Mashable says it's the next big thing. After that, they get confused and bored and don't use it.
- How is Pinterest different from Tumblr? Tumblr is a place for Community GIFs, dramatic pictures of wolves, people feverishly arguing about tech through reblogs, and generally anything regarding the human race. Pinterest is a sort of mother-ship for any and all things Martha Stewart related.
- Don't look at your girlfriend's Pinterest. That's where she's secretly planning your wedding.
- You have Pinterest, here are some suggestions of what to put on it:
- Cute pictures of cookies
- Creative candlesticks for party decorations
- A turtle looking out a window (Guilty)
- Noodles shaped like hearts
- A complicated french braid with a not so easy but claims to be easy tutorial
- A picture of your dream crafting room
- A zany couch
- A girl wearing a pea coat you love
- A cat painted like a panda bear
- If you post anything that doesn't seem cute, twee, feel-good and romantic - a secret curator deletes it.
Pinterest is the online, social gathering that makes me feel like I am doing something, when in fact I am not. I'm organizing, finding recipes, searching for Christmas gifts, finding Christmas gifts, and really making new friends. Probably not that last part. That last part sounded like I belong in this category:
OK, it's a time suck. Pinterest is right up there with Facebook and Twitter. I've had to add it to my daily, social networking extravaganza. Now I check my email, create a witty Facebook status, send out a tweet, write a blog, oh yeah, don't forget the Pinterest.
Pinterest is pretty pointless unless you put some of the things you pin into action. Don't worry, I made some cookies I pinned a few weeks ago. Congratulations to me - I can confidently pin because I follow through.
But because I love my Pinterest, I'm going to share a few pins with you:

For the love of Pinterest - Happy Pinning!
