I have a Pinterest account. I signed up for it, signed in, and "pinned" a few books. I didn't know what do to with it, but I'd been looking for a way to log some of the favorite books I've read.
It did the trick, but I haven't used it since. I get emails daily telling me someone is following my pins or repinned one of my pins.
My wife uses it a lot and credits Pinterest for coming up with some great ideas for gifts and organizing the home.
Most people I know who use Pinterest are women. And I'm not the only one who noticed.
I think this is fascinating. What is it about Pinterest that draws Midwestern women? Do you have any clues for me? If I were back in grad school, I'd take a semseter to dive into that one.
Some newsrooms are using it as well. That's something else I'd like to study.

Good question.
I think it's attractive because it's a visual brainstorming site. You can say, "That project is visually appealing" and pin it. That said, I don't use it that much, but get the notifications that people are following me on it.
Side note: have you read "Unbroken" by Laura Hillenbrand? Pin it! Read it!
