My Farmville overalls have been hanging in the virtual closet for two years now. They retired at the peak of my farm productivity and farm visual appeal. My green alien cows and thought of building virtual vineyards just lost its appeal. Since then I have been quietly searching for my next online time eater. I am happy to announce I feel that I have found it, Pinterest.com.
“Pinterest is a virtual pinboard. It lets you organize and share all the beautiful things you find in your life. People use pinboards to plan their weddings, decorate their homes, and organize their favorite recipes.” - iTunes
We can spend hours and hours pinning our favorite things we see on the web and in our lives and then place and organize them on our own virtual bulletin board. We can re-use or “repin” others’ favorites. It’s scrap booker’s dream with the additional possibility of HD videos!
All of my drawers and folders of cut up home magazines, kitchen designs, paint samples that I will never use and recipes that that I probably will never make can all be compiled in one spot. I can share them, collaborate with others to make even grander scale patches of greatness and beauty. It will be fabulous.
I am looking forward to getting started. I have downloaded my app. Now I am waiting for my invitation. To join an invitation needs to be sent by another user or you are placed on a “waiting list”, geeze, I hope that list is not too long…..so much to do…..
