There are a lot of great photos online, and Pinterest <\/strong>aims to be the place where you save all the online images you like. Never lose a picture you enjoyed somewhere on the internet again!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Pinterest is a social photo sharing service<\/strong> that lets you create folders to organize content you find online<\/strong>. Called pinboards, these folders can be tailored directly to your interests and even organized into more specific sub-categories to make them searchable to other users.<\/p>\n

You can easily add images you find online to your pinboards<\/strong>, either manually or in <\/strong>Chrome<\/strong><\/a> with a one-click add-on<\/a>. Alternatively, you can also upload images saved on your computer directly to the site. Just be sure to add a link back to the original source or credit the author by name if possible. If you find something you like within Pinterest’s website itself, there’s a feature that lets you “Repin” an image and add it directly to the pinboard of your choice<\/strong>. In this way, Pinterest is a kind of hybrid between photo sharing website We Heart It<\/a> and microblogging platform Tumblr<\/a> that allows users to reblog other peoples’ pictures and posts. Simply liking an image, as well as commenting, is also possible.<\/p>\n

Currently, Pinterest is an invite-only service<\/strong>. That said, I requested an invite and it took about a week to receive notice back that I could create an account and join. You can log into Pinterest via either your Facebook<\/a><\/strong> or Twitter<\/a><\/strong> account once you’ve received an invite, which makes sharing even easier. There’s also an app for the service available for iPhone<\/a>. Even without an invite, you can freely browse the public pinboards that have already been posted up by other users, making it well worth a look.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
