I have glanced at the site a couple of times. Pretty neat ideas but I don't have an account or want one. I can screen shot things that I like right on my phone.

It's a pretty cool concept but haven't been able to get into it yet... Don't really want to join another social media page where I'm gonna spend a bunch of time on :D

Yeah, I like it...I use it to discover products, recipes, gardening tips, fashion, inspirational quotes and to look at beautiful photography. I also use it as a vision board and for gift ideas. It's great.

I haven't signed up myself but I've seen some cool stuff just from searching. My mom is on it and she really likes it. She gets a lot of different workouts from there.

I LOVE Pinterest.  Some days when my pain "flare-ups" are really bad, I spend hours on there trying to keep my mind occupied.  I've made some things off of there, but mainly I use it for inspiration to get ideas for other things I want to do.  I love finding easy recipes, health tips, homemade pet food & crafts for pets, DIY anything, decorating ideas, gift ideas, home remedies, and re-purposing ideas... to name a few.

I have found though, the best thing to do is copy the PIN (or write it down) because it doesn't take very long and some of those PINS either get pulled from Pinterest, or a blogger quits "blogging" and the link to the PIN no longer works, or the website the PIN is supposed to go to...can no longer be found.  (I "copy" it and then "paste" it to an e-mail I send to myself).

I've learned alot from Pinterest, and it's one site that has definitely enriched my life.  I highly recommend it!!   :thumbsup:

I have a Pinterest account and have used it to search for recipes, home decorating ideas and hairstyles.

My daughters love the site.

I signed up but didn't really pin many things... I get many emails from Pinterest though, telling me to check out pins from other people. Gets kind of annoying I might delete my account :D

I do use Pinterest, but mostly for pinning recipes that I find on-line. It's a nice convenient place for me to store them and I know exactly where they are. Some people also store products they find on line, like designer items, keepsakes and how-to craft items, housewares they can only afford in their dreams and cute little pictures of pets. When I first used Pinterest I wasn't sure if I would ever have even 10 items on my pages, but now I have files for slow cooker recipes, desserts, healthier options and snack foods. I just have an account for what I want it for and it's a really helpful place to store my favorite on-line pins.

You can change that in your settings.  I never get an email from them.

Pinterest is my favorite social networking site.  I could forget the rest of them.  Actually, I have only tried out a few sites as I am just not into that kind of thing.  However, for me, Pinterest is an exception.  I love the recipes, animals, gardening, photography, decor, and much more.  it gives me inspiration and ideas.  Pinterest is the only social site I get on and find myself spending 30 minutes or more at times.

My daughter uses it all the time to get recipes so she can try new things for the family to eat.  I have also used it occasionally to look up new recipes.
