If you’re not on Pinterest, well, to be honest, stop reading and go take a long, hard look at yourself. The newest social network to barge into our lives, take over all our time and utterly addict us to its layout, content and ease of use has officially got the big guns in – Mark Zuckerberg! The Facebook founder joined Pinterest today, and although his activity is understated to say the least, he’s at least given in to the pull.
Pinterest, as you should know, is the simple content sharing site, or online pin board, as it’s more easily described, and it is easily the hottest website of 2012. The site’s amassed over 10 million visitors per month and over 100 brands are already quick enough on the uptake to create an account.
It may be early days but Pinterest is rumoured to be a potential threat to Facebook, the biggest, bestest and baddest of all the social networking sites. It goes without saying that Facebook have been on the ball with almost all of their digital concepts, so it’s unsurprising that Zuckerberg felt it necessary to see what all the fuss is about.
If you haven’t got yourself over to Pinterest yet, then sign up and get Pinning. But a word of warning – don’t make any plans for the rest of your life, ‘cause you won’t be free to do anything else.
