Pinterest is a very good networking tool

Pinterest had over 11 million join in December. I was just asking if anyone here had heard of it and joined it. There are plenty of people seeing my items over there now. It is a cool site.

moonwitch. The waiting listis for your invitation, it comes in three or four days. You pin your items and repin other's items and so on and so forth, on the order of tweeting except people can actually see your product. I hope everyone joins.

@Hazeleyes.

I take it back !

Pinterest does have a very high Alexa rating (142)
So that means it is very popular.

(wish ebid could get an Alexa anywhere that)

Now I'm on there and finding my way about. As I tend to with these things, not touching anything spammy till I understand the etiquette, so been pinning a few genuine likes - and got a re-pin already! Woo!

Rather disappointed that a lot of the pages I'd like to pin, Pinterest reports that it can find no pictures or videos. Since they're covered in them, I guess this is about how the images are being coded onto the page.

It's also quite a nice excuse to spend an evening paddling around looking at stuff I like.

Not exactly sure how this works yet, but this might get you to me: http://pinterest.com/bykimbo/

Thanks, that's mostly the basics so would be great for any eBidders who haven't taken the plunge yet - reassuringly easy to understand! One of the tips at the bottom mentions RSS feed... which I hadn't even noticed! So off to look at that more, thanks.
