If so, what sort of boards do you like to follow? Which of your boards is the most popular? Do you use Pinterest in your phone too? I really love Pinterest, not only because it gets those creative juices flowing but because it is actually quite therapeutic. I love the quotes, humour, cupcakes, UrbEx and nature boards. I just wish I had more great boards to follow :(

I love pinterest, a friend of mine sent me an invite. I love having the boards and being able to pin ideas there, for the home, scrapbooking, travel, etc. I love how you can save ideas there, have them all in one place, to go back to for ideas on home decorating. I agree it is therapeutic. The only draw back to it is that little button down at the bottom of each page 'show more'! Ha ha, I have stayed up way later than intended because of that button! lol

Hahaha I can SO relate to you with that one. The time really does fly when you're pinning! Especially when you're like, 'ok 5 more minutes' but you're still awake 1hr later!

I have seen so many people talk about this on facebook but have no idea what it is. Could you fill me in some?

Basically it's a social network site with a twist. Imagine a huge scrapbook where everyone shares photos. If you like a photo that someone has shared/uploaded, you can pin it to your board. It's a great way to collect ideas and get inspiration for a whole range of things. For example, my favourite board is my cupcakes board. I have 353 followers and 800 photos on there which people look at everyday. I can follow people who post good photos too. You can like photos, comment on them (bit like Facebook)...it's soooo addictive. You should go and try it :)

I use pinterest a little, but I'm not addicted to it like some people. Really it seems to be a better organized version of tumblr, and I've been using tumblr for years.
Of my own boards my animal board and my quotes board get the most re-pins.

I am a member of pinterest but still I could not understand and seek for what is the benefit of this in my life as a blogger. Pinterest could not help me to drive more traffic in my blogs, hope i just miss it out.
