I started pinning a LONG time ago and mostly use it for organizational purposes not for the social aspects.It's actually getting overcrowded. It used to be people who had similar tastes to mine, but now everybody's doing it and re-pinning the same crap. I read a LOT of blogs and I pin stuff that I want to use later from these blogs. I hardly ever go on the site itself, other than to look up something I'd pinned on my own board. It's just too much to look at. And people are starting to comment on things and fight over crap like it's facebook. It's just obnoxious.I pin patterns for crafts, recipes, things I would like to buy, etc. Most of the pins I "collected" have been used later. We use my recipe boards when making our grocery decisions weekly try to do one new recipe a week. I also use my craft pattern boards frequently.Basically, for me, Pinterest fit a need that I had. I was collecting recipes, exercise moves and craft patterns as PDFs and storing them on my external hard drive. I was almost ready to create a database for them (using Filemaker's Bento) but then I discovered Pinterest.Of course, I do have some fun things on there ... a board filled with attractive men is one ... but those boards have FAR less pins on them than the ones I actually use. Thanks for sharing! I’m glad there are people out there that aren’t obsnssieg over it.
