I spent a good chunk of time exploring Pinterest this morning. I added several pins to my boards. I hear a lot from people that they like Pinterest but fear they waste too much time just browsing through image after image. I understand this can be a real problem and yet what an incredible resource. Pinterest is a great way to share images. I have only just begun to get a sense for its great potential as a place to gather visual information that becomes a sort of grid of who we have been and what we are becoming.
