Pinterest

Pinterest, pinterest, pinterest…you may be the greatest website ever.  Better than facebook.  Better than twitter.  Better than google.  I am obsessed.  I am in love.  I am a fanatical pinner.  The best aspect is that, besides that it is an amazing time-waster while I wait for the train, I am also being very productive for work.  How you ask?  Let me explain…

Pinterest is a virtual bulletin board for ideas that you find anywhere on the internet and want to save.  Once the photo/video/text is ‘pinned’ to a certain board (you create your own boards and titles), pinterest then saves and hyperlinks back to the original link when clicked.  This has saved me countless hours of searching through emails from myself/to myself with ideas for weddings.  It was as if a light went off and I had my EUREKA moment…a site that easily stores all of my ideas!  Genius!  I have boards for various ideas such as bouquets, ceremony, centerpieces, gowns, ladies, gentlemen, etc.    I have boards for specific couples and my ideas for their weddings.  In addition to my work pinterest, I also have my personal pinterest boards with ideas for my children, home, Christmas, clothing, even nail polish colors.  Anything and everything is pinned till the time when I need it or just a have a few minutes to browse. 

As wedding and event planning, interior design and photography students, pinterest is a wonderful tool to help organize your ideas and unclutter your inbox.  A word of warning, it is terribly addictive in the best sort of way.  Please do not send me emails saying that it has now overtaken your every waking moment and that you are a pinterest addict because of me!  I did give you the warning!  Go forth and happy pinning!!

That's really nice and from my point of view Web design is the process of planning and creating a website. Text, images, digital media and interactive elements are used by web designers to produce the best creativity in the web design.
I like that tool a lot!

I can learn lot through this site.
A great and wonderful idea. Can you also pin audio (mp3) clips? This will add another dimension to your site.
