Pinterest: Very intriguing - Have you tried it? #socbiz #ibmsocialbiz #ls12
So, I just tried out Pinterest. It is very cool. It just launched in 2010, and now has 10M registered users. I read that it is one of the top 10 websites in the world!!!
It is intriguing to me! Here's why!
- Power to Women! I was interested when I heard it called "Tumblr for girls." Yep, women drove its popularity and now its is sending and receiving more traffice than the 100M users on Google + ( more male dominated?!)
- Addicting. I wanted to try this out and ended up spending 2 hours exploring and learning.
- Value. About 9% of the top online retailers are offering Pinterest pins on their sites. I saw reference libraries for tech products, recipe folders for Food companies, Gift Selections for retailers, and the list goes on. WOW!
- Easy! If you haven't used it, watch this one![youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQP2dBMoCQ0&feature=player_embedded]
- Fun. I had fun. I love social and I love my social tools. This is one of my new Favs! What I loved tonight is the "bucket list" "recipes" "Top places to visit" etc.
Have you used it?
