What is it?

Site-Seeker, Inc. 2012

Pinterest is a Virtual Pinboard.

Pinterest lets you organize and share

all the beautiful things you find on the

web.

People use pinboards to plan their

weddings, decorate their homes,

and organize their favorite recipes.

Best of all, you can browse pinboards

created by other people. Browsing

pinboards is a fun way to discover

new things and get inspiration

from people who share your

interests.
