I've been using Pinterest for a while now.I didn't realise it was an American site.
To celebrate it launching in the UK, I thought I would share it with you.
Have you heard of it? I'm sure you have, but just in case you haven't it's a pin board for collecting photos and graphics from around the web. It's a great place to save ideas and each of your visual pins links to the original post.
As a food blogger, it's also a great place to promote your recipes.
Pinterest loves food!
I've actually started to turn to it instead of google.
Say I want a recipe for lime curd or I want to find out how to get wines stains out of fabric? I do a search and pin it!
What if I want to make my own gift boxes or find a tutorial for a new up-do for my hair. I do a search and pin it!
Here are my boards:
Thank you for the mention and kind words Jac. Your boards all look fabulous and another source of great vegetarian fare. I'm really pleased pinterest is getting a bit more of a UK focus too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Choclette, it is great fun, isn't it!
DeleteThanks for participating in Pin It Forward, Jacqueline! You have so many amazing boards (wow!) and I especially love your Veggie board! I'm a Vegetarian and am always looking for great recipes to cook up- you have found delicious food finds on Pinterest! I can't wait to make the grilled & filled eggplant with cheese, spring onion, cherry tomatoes and fig- yum! Lauren, Community Coordinator
ReplyDeleteThanks Lauren :)
DeleteI love pinterest but time does suddenly disappear when looking at pinterest - such an interesting way of sourcing information because it is so visual. What does it mean to have pinterest launched in the uk?
ReplyDeleteIt is just raising the profile of pinterest and pinners in the UK. It is very much an American site at the mo, even though it has international pinners.
