I've been using Pinterest for about a month now. I was first drawn to it because it's more creative and calming to browse than Facebook. It seems like Facebook is filled with people who just like to hear themselves talk and not much productiveness is going on over there. But on Pinterest it's all about being creative and productive.
A picture (or in this case a pin) is worth a thousand words. I'm more of a picture, hands-on kind of gal and I like not having to read a lot to get the idea. Plus there's this atmosphere of sharing what makes you happy. Pinners aren't trying to prove a point. They just want to share great ideas, crafts and style.
Pinterest is also very versatile. Yes, it's main purpose is for pinning things you find online onto boards but individual pinners and companies are finding creative ways to use Pinterest to promote their product or business. And, wouldn't you know, a pinner made a board for just this topic
