I will probably have a Pin account next week for my dyeing business. After that, I'll think about one for me. I'll keep you both in mind!

Marybrace I am with you. I find Facebook to be annoying - too many ads - LinkedIn is valuable for business but not sure what value Pinterest has?

I love Pinterest. And you're right, it can suck up your time. I have several boards but quilting is my main interest.

Little bit about pinterest:
It is a community of people that find ideas and put them on a bulletin board. actually many bulletin boards...no thumb tacks needed.

I first found pinterest when we were planning my daughters wedding. Are budget was tight so we made all of the decoration and favors from pinterest ideas. My daughter pinned ideas of wedding dresses, pictures she wanted taken at the wedding. I sure you get the idea.

I have MANY different boards...I find it easier to retrieve the ideas when I'm looking for them. so I don't have recipes ...I have dinners, desserts and canning etc...

I have a lot of interest in crafts more then quilting so I have quilting, postage stamp quilts ,kid crafts...

Also there are ideas on how to decorate or how to hang pictures...I have a board called "smart ideas" things I should of thought of be someone else did!

Also it is NOT a community board that you talk back and forth with someone. Nothing like facebook or linkedin. you can follow people...which means you will see what they post and you can or don't have to post it....it does not matter to anyone.

And a last note about Pinterest.....it can suck time...plenty of time...so I made a bulletin board called "pins I completed" I repost everything when I do the pin..sometimes I will change something while I am doing it and will give my "helpful" hints. :)

Today's pin: Chocolate Chip Cookie Delight.......cookies with cream cheese, whip topping and pudding......looks YUM to me ....where are going to a potluck picnic at church tonight......hope I get some:)

I agree Pinterest can really suck your time. Lots of fun stuff to look at, and try. Recipes are interesting too~
