After patiently waiting on the sidelines for a while and watching others enjoy the benefits (mostly women – 97% I’ve read) I finally dove into Pinterest and created my account. What brought me aboard was that so many photographers were using it two-fold. Firstly, they are using as a good way to keep other people’s amazing photos easily accessible and handy, and secondly as a way to pin and show their own work, something I feel a bit uncomfortable doing yet. I’ve started with a few typical boards to pin onto but I’m sure that very soon that will be expanding into areas I haven’t even considered yet. (I even added “Pin it” buttons to my posts.)
(While typing this paragraph one of the photos that I pinned just a few minutes earlier was already re-pinned ten times! (All by women.) That kind of immediate interaction is pretty darned impressive.)
