The latest buzz in social media is about the image sharing site called Pinterest. Every one is using it and talking about it. Its a board where users can like and share the image which other users have liked or post a new image. Its addictive for users and an excellent tool for showcasing one's business specially if your business can be represented in images e.g. food, fashion, architecture. It is directing huge amount of traffic to sites whose images are pinned and repinned hence become the most popular pins in the site.
Just when we thought sharing on Facebook or Flickr is cool Pinterest has taken sharing to the next level of fun. For that matter this site has made sharing within the site and from outside far more easier than any of its predecessors in the social media space. A "Pin It" button on your browser makes it easy to share any image of liking and comes along with signing up with the site rather than a separate app. What more I just discovered that video sharing and e-commerce is integrated within the site. So as you browse through and like something you can also order some in. Not sure if its available for all the countries but am sure as it spreads and becomes popular more and more companies will jump in the gun and embrace Pin-commerce (just coined the term for fun:))
I have certainly got addicted to it and I hear many others say the same. It is a pool of images connecting people who like the same kind of art or food or clothing. I am sure some people must be networking over this platform as they comment over the same image and realize the similar likings whether they are in America or Africa. As many bloggers and social media experts swear and bet that this is the next best thing to FB and Twitter; I place +1 to those comments simply because this is refreshing and am loving it!
