So my GF has really gotten into this pintrest so I thought that I would give it a try and post some Keyboard related stuff, but to be honest I really don't like the site. There a lot of little annoyances that really build up. If you guys aren't familar with the site it is basically a clipboard where you post pics of things with a brief description that are of interest to you and people can follow you and repin your post to there boards etc. Sounds cool in theory but the reality of it is not. The way that they want you to pin stuff makes it quite hard to bring something new into the site almost like they just want you to pin the same **** from other peoples profiles on pintrest. Also trying to pin something from a site in another country like say Korea doesn't quite work and my last complaint for now is that there is not a option so that you host pics from say your photobucket or similar source which to an extent I can understand because then they wont have those blank screens when accounts are deleted.
I will post an update of my trials later, but for now I am not liking the site.
What do you guys think of it?

I must be out of touch. I was thinking "pintrest" was something like a coaster for a mug of beer:

My gf is into Pintrest. I haven't really checked it out thoroughly but it seems like a soft core version of reddit aimed towards college girls.

QFT. Also, my GF has just gotten into this site too. It seems every female I know who is semi computer literate is addicted to Pinterest.

Basically here is how a conversation with a college aged girl goes when she tells me about pintrest.
Her: "Hey like have you like heard of this like new thing called Pintrest?"
Me: "Uh, no what is it?" ( I actually have heard of it I just pretend not too)
Her: "It's like this cool thing where you like post pictures and stuff and like then other people like can see them"
Me: "Oh, so it's kind of similar to Reddit then?"
Her: "Like no! What is that anyway?"

I guess I like girl stuff ... I'm a fan of pinterest, though I don't really pin anything. Mostly I just browse and collect recipes and pictures of cute purses.
