    Wow is right. I thought Pinterest was only pictures. Thanks for sharing.

    Pinterest is only pictures, but unlike other picture websites such as Flickr, the pictures actually link to websites. It's a visual bookmarking tool, which is awesome because sometimes I can't remember what something is called, but I can remember what something looks like!

    Thanks for the link!

    I have been looking at Pinterest the last couple of days and thinking about joining it. Your link really got me thinking I am missing a lot!

    What they have depends on who is pinning. I see a ton of pins that ARE only pictures and when you click on them, they just go to a picture. That is annoying when it's something like a recipe and they pinned or repinned from an image. I've also seen pins that go to the homepage of a site or blog and then it's nearly impossible to find the actual article that was pinned. I think a lot of people don't understand proper pinning and a lot of people repin without checking the link first. I have a lot of tutorials on my boards. Other than my "ideas only, no tutes" board I only pin actual tutorials or patterns.

    That's what I found just now. Had to join Pinterest only to find that the two videos I was interested in were nowhere to be found in the links. Total waste of time.
