Pin it!

See something that interest you? Well, Pin it! Thus you have; Pinterest. Pinterest might just be the underdog of all the social media apps today. Of course there's Instgram, Facebook, and Twitter, but Pinterest seems to always be left out of the discussion when it comes to some of the best social media apps. Pinterest is an app that is "creativity galore."  It is an app that has almost anything from ideas, to recipes, to art, you name it...9/10 it's on Pinterest . Next month; March 2016 Pinterest  will celebrate it's 6th successful birthday, and has been significantly growing since it launched in March 2010. Pinterest works in a somewhat of a simple fashion. "Pin." To pin something on Pinterest, is when you post a new category or picture to a board. "A board" is a category on a user's profile. For example, if I was to scroll down the home page of Pinterest and I saw a interesting recipe that I'd like to use, I would pin that to my board "recipes." You also can "like" something, if you see something such as a artistic painting, and you don't have a board dedicated to art, one simple click of of the like button will save it to your cateogory of "likes." The 3 boards on my Pinterest are, "Projects to Try," "Recipes," and "Style." The only downside of Pinterest  is that sometimes it can seem cluttered with so many different ideas on the homepage. The very creative app of Pinterest is an app that should be more commonly used, it can be such a great help in a variety of ways!
