Pinterest's Popularity is Poppin'

Some users have described Pinterest with these enticing endorsements. "Pinterest is like getting a new magazine in the mail every day." "Pinterest is everything you never knew you always wanted to know about anything." "It's like Etsy and Pottery Barn had a baby and made a scrapbook of their cute little family." Around since March 2010 the site has experienced a recent explosion of popularity making it one of the 10 most popular social-networking sites. It is a springboard for creative ideas, practical living tips and inspiration for users' lives in new and challenging ways. The best way to understand how Pinterest works is to join the site and start pinning. Take yourself to http://www.pinterest.com/ and just "pin away".

I connected myself and found it a thoroughly enjoyable way to spend a snowy day totally housebound.
