So, a while back I read a post on a blog that I follow about the blogger’s new obsession with this site – Pinterest. It seemed like something I should avoid as yet another way to spend my time unproductively. However, last week I kept getting emails from the site saying a friend here and a friend there had started using the site. Thus…I caved.
Although I’m not obsessing yet over it, I do find it to be rather useful in bookmarking sites of interest. It seems easier and more interesting than delicious, which has been around forever as an online bookmarking site. So, I’m trying it out. You can follow people, people follow me and it’s all part of this great world of social networking and adding to my digital footprint – sigh -.
I find it most useful for recipes that I can just bring up quickly on my iPad when cooking in the kitchen. Although I’ve only ‘pinned’ one site thus far as I’ve got the others saved on my iPad. Will work on that later when I’m avoiding academic reading! π
