Anybody here using pinterest.com? If so, how do you like it?

I spend too much time on QB-don't need any more distractions.

I tried it but I care for it.

One of my daughters sent me the link a few days ago, but I haven't even checked it out yet. I know she uses it some.

I looked at it once. Don't understand the purpose, or hype about it.

sarahsews 10-15-2011 05:06 AM

OK. It's by invitation only, or get on the waiting list...so none of you are going to "invite me? :-)

Some people are saying it's a great way to get exposure if you make things to sell online if you have a small group who cross promotes for each other - can't toot your own horn.

LOL I signed up when my daughter signed up to see what type of stuff she liked but then I couldn't stand it because I got so many e-mails, even with the lowest amount selected

Mine too!!!

I've used it, but I don't get the point. I can save links to me computer, so I don't get why I need a website for that. And Twitter? Don't get me started. Too much social networking makes me crabby.

craftybear 10-15-2011 07:45 AM

I don't use it either

I love it.

It's actually not JUST by invitation only, you can go to the website and request an invite. That's how I got mine.

I'd be cautious of self-promotion, it's somewhat against the rules.

Oh, I know self-promotion is against the rules. I have requested an invite on the website now.

I LOVE it! It's been a great source for recipes and crafts for my daughter's birthday party and an event at church. I'm hooked! (Kind of like flickr.com and here- I LOVE looking at neat photos!)

Ladies,,,,what are you talking about?

Peckish 10-25-2011 10:46 AM

A website called Pinterest.com, it's sort of a visual bookmarking site. I've "pinned" things to my page such as quilts I like and recipes I want to try, in addition to decorating ideas, funny pictures of animals for my youngest son, craft projects, etc. The bookmarks are stored as pictures, which is VERY helpful if you're a visual person.

baslp 10-25-2011 11:51 AM

I also love this site.. I have found some great recipes and quilt patterns.
