I'm not exactly sure what I did before Pinterest. I believe, if memory serves, that I would hop into bed with my iPad and play Angry Birds or google an unsubstantiated health care concern.
No longer. I am one of countless (not true, someone is tracking the number) devotees of the Pinterest movement.
If you have been under a rock for several months and not checked it out ... do yourself a favor and put an end to the abstinance.
If you need a frame of reference, then I will say: Pinterest is the new Facebook. And, it kicks Twitter's butt, Flipboard style. It's a powerful, visual microblog. It's so easy to use, my mom set up her account and began using it PROPERLY in a matter of minutes. She's really good at it and her content is fantastic.
I am in love with what I've found on the site - so much so that I am going to add another segment to The Daily Fuss called "Pinteresting" where I focus on something AMAZING I would never have found, but for Pinterest.
Click on the image to my boards.
I will start tomorrow with my inspiration for Mairin's first birthday party (nearly all courtesy of Pinterest). It took me until just now to recover from the bash. Stay tuned for first birthday DIY madness and lots of photographs.
As the Pinterest geniuses know, a picture's worth a thousand words.
Easy as anything I have ever tried. And, way more laid back than any other social media site. I can post a tutorial soon if you think it would help.

I don't know ... I am a little intimidated. You say that your Mom can do it?
