Pinterest: Explanation and Review
Explanation
Pinterest is a wesbite that features a search engine in which a user can enter keywords or tags. Once tags are entered to the search bar, pinterest finds and presents all material stored on the website that have been tagged with the designated keyword. A user could, for example, type in the word “lizard” to the search bar in the top left corner of the page. Pinterest thus finds all material in its database with the tag “lizard” and the user can find an array of lizard-related material, such as 3D paper cut-outs, photographs of lizards, movies involving lizards, etc. Pinterest is similar to tumblr in that a user can find, be entertained by, and blog topics that relate to their mood or life. Pinterest is built purely for sake of finding entertainment in desired topics and offering more than just text to pleasure the user.
Review
I personally feel like Pinterest is fun and a great way to attain news, share art, and have access to multitudes of opinions and creations. As a new user of Pinterest I am excited to find fitness routines, inspirations for my artwork, and awesome recipes for food! I like pinterest a LOT better than tumblr.com because navigation is far superior than that of tumblr's navigation.
