Pin it?

Interesting to go on pininterest and see your pictures. I found my German roombox on Dollhouses. I started a page called dollhouseme. Haven't even figured out yet if caps matter. Tell me what you know about it. Have you been "pinned"??? Is it to show you have good taste? To share ideas? Is to show what you desire to own? I can see why etsy  people go on it to show their wares. What is it about?

  1. Yes I have been pinned a lot from my "Homepage about dolls and dollhouses and even from my blog." The photos is shown in a lot of forums. I wish that these people were polite enough to leave a comment on the blog or on my guestlist on my Homepage and tell that they have done that and were they are to be shown, But no one is so polite do that. I think that that is strange!

    I would love to know that they like my photos that much that they want pin them. Of cource I want people to enjoy them and learn something about the things, but it would have been nice to know!

    I made a great jobb and have put my name on almost every photon recently, so everyone will know that they are mine. It is lots of work that people are doing behind almost every photo that they are publishing.

    All doll reference pages that are using my Home-pages information are only showing a link back to my pages, I like that. They are serious people.

    O.K. "it is" fun to be liked and people has some advantage of my informations

  4. I don't really get Pinterest. I have "pinned" some things, but they are primarily ideas I like. I've noticed that there are some people that are "following" me in Pinterest. To be honest, I don't even remember how to log in to see what I have. I think it is really more like an idea board. Let me know what else you find out about it.

  6. I think it is simply a way of keeping a record of beautiful or interesting photos, and then associating those photos with your user name. I like it because it is a convenient way to find eye candy, lots of great photos of houses, interiors, miniatures, fashion, etc. I don't know how long it will last, however. There doesn't seem to be much attention paid to copyrights. For as long as it exists, I do like it.

  7. I'm with Neen, it's just kinda fun. But it's an honor to have a photo pinned, congrats! It's great for parties/wedding ideas. It wasn't around when I was planning mine, so I had to paste my ideas and pictures into a Microsoft document the old fashioned way. ;)
