Follow Me on Pinterest

Pinterest has CHANGED (again)

This week my Pinterest account has a new feature.  When you make a pin, a window pops up that lists another board where the pin is featured.  You then have the opportunity to "follow" that board.

At first, I liked the idea, and pushed the button to follow several new boards.  If you follow the featured board, the next time you pin the same picture, it will give you yet another board that shares that particular pin.

I'm not sure how many times I've decided to follow someone in one short week.  But from my feed, I think it's a lot!  I need to select a wider variety of boards to follow.  I'm up to my eyeballs in flower pictures.  Not that I mind.  I LOVE flowers.  But I like to look at a wider diversity of pictures.  :)



The other thing about this new feature is there is no
way to bypass it.  I'm learning to be patient, as the window stays open for about 5 seconds.  It seems like a long time when I'm impatient, and it tends to make me mad.  So I'm using it as another tool to remind me to stay calm, breath deep, and let go.  :)

Guess other people are pushing the button to add ME to their feed, because I now have 840 people following me.  That's up from 660 last week!!

I'm also sporting 184 boards, and 23,736 pins.

Pinterest is back as my #1 addiction!

  1. Pinwords is a really basic tool, but it’s great if you want to quickly make an image from a quote and add it to your Pinterest account. Pinstamatic actually lets you

    create a whole bunch of items to add to your Pinterest boards including website snapshots, pins of Twitter profiles and Spotify tracks that you can pin.
