I had heard people talking about it in the office; I had also heard women in the supermarket, discussing randomly about their favorite pinboards. This new thing is called Pinterest and has something to do with photography, is what I could grasp from the random tidbits of information I gathered. After overhearing various conversations, I was only able to understand this.
It was Friday and I had decided to go late to work, sometime in the afternoon. Pinterest was the only thing that was making me curious and I had intentions to dig out complete information at work. I knew Suzy would be the best person to ask this since she always has answers to all my tech queries.
I had finished my work by evening with an aim to fully concentrate on my new POA for the day. I asked Suzy to explain me all the details of Pinterest. She was surprised to know that I was unaware of this much talked-about social networking platform.
From whatever Suzy explained me, I inferred that Pinterest is a photo sharing social networking platform. She told me that Pinterest is immensely popular among the fairer sex and currently it has created a lot of buzz by its skyrocketing number of users.
I learnt how to create my own pinboard and Pin the things that interest me. My interest to learn more of Pinterest was increasing, and hence I decided to stay back in office late night and explore.
Suzy had sent me an invite to create an account. After creating my account, I started accessing and visiting various pinboards created by other people. I was highly impressed by the creativity of the users. The way things were brought together and pinned on the pinboards fascinated and encouraged me to come up with a creative and unique pinboard.
I was skeptical about showcasing what was on my mind but then I remembered what Suzy told me. “We can add any random thing (Content/Photo) that interests us, to our pinboards.”
I went through my collection of photographs on Flickr and decided to Pin some. There were some photographs of last year’s fashion show at office get-together. I had adorned the best of outfits then. Those photos were also added to my pinboard.
I also chose my interests from a wide spectrum of genre available and my list included Food, Fashion, Photography, Travelling and Books. These are the elements around which my life revolves.
It was already 23:45 hours and I was still at work. Mom called me to acknowledge my whereabouts. I told her that I will be reaching home shortly.
Half an hour later, I was at home and through with my dinner, post that I was back to my room and then it was just my notebook, me and Pinterest. I again indulged into the wonderful world of Pinterest. Mom came to say goodnight and found me hooked onto my notebook. She also inquired of what I was busy doing. I gave her a brief explanation and I could sense that she too seemed to be quite interested. I knew what was coming next morning.
It’s been a week that I started using Pinterest and I love it. My Pinboards have been appreciated by my friends and others who also follow me (Mom is one of them). I am highly thankful to Suzy who introduced me to Pinterest.
My love for social media platforms increases with each coming day and I find myself indulging in the phenomena all over again. Pinterest is my latest crush.
