Pinterest

A week or so ago, I read on a friends blog (thanks Katie!) about how frustrating it can be to find something online that you like, but you don't really know what to do with the link.  I can totally relate!  Usually I just e-mail myself the link and then keep it in a folder in my Inbox.  Now this does work, but then I have to go through all the folders and e-mails, and it's just not very effective.  Well, thanks to Pinterest, this will no longer be an issue.

Basically what Pinterest is is a website where you can post all of your favorite links and organize them into categories, such as food, style, crafts, etc.  You can make your own categories so it's really an organizing tool for everybody!!  I had my friend Katie invite me to it, and have had fun playing around a little bit.  I haven't done much yet, but I intend on using this A LOT!!  It's pretty much awesome.  You can look at my page here (like I said, I haven't done much yet!)  If you want to be invited please leave a comment with your e-mail address.

Oh, and one great thing is that when you sign up, it links to your Facebook and you automatically start following your friends who are already on Pinterest.    It's nice to follow people because you can get great ideas from them and vice versa.

Happy Pinning!
