"Pinterest confirmed our suspicions that the visual social network is ready to take on Google when it comes to search. At an event at Pinterest headquarters Thursday evening, CEO Ben Silbermann announced Guided Search, a new visual way to explore Pinterest’s more than 30 billion pins—links or images chosen by users and assigned by them to topical collections..."

How come Pinterest alternatives are popular among men, while the mother of virtual pinboards remains dominated by women? The infrastructure is impartial, users define the content, and a closer look reveals that Pinterest holds plenty of material anyone will find interesting. What are you missing out on? Technology: Retro Tech This is by far our most favorite topic here on MakeUseOf and Pinterest doesn’t disappoint. Whether you’re looking for tech infographics, high tech or cool tech & gadgets, it’s all there. With Retro Tech, Mark Thomas takes a look back at technology of yesteryears. Did you know Andy Warhol colored Debbie Harry on an Amiga computer? How did NASA work without PowerPoint? And which gadget did Bill Cosby advertise for? Looking at what technology looked like many decades ago can induce nostalgia. But it also makes you wonder where we’ll go from here. Via Mau, John van den Brink

Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest – What Happens Every 60 Seconds In Social Media?
Some very interesting information:
**Did you know that every 60 seconds Twitter sees (on average) 175,000 new tweets?
**Over that same time period, Pinterest receives 1,090 visitors
**LinkedIn absorbs 7,610 searches
**Flickr users upload 3,125 photos?
**If you think those numbers are impressive, how about this: each and every minute of the day, 700,000 messages are sent on Facebook
** two million videos are watched on YouTube.
What caught my attention - sometimes the comments are just as interesting if not more than the actual content itself:
****Sarah Upton says: February 28, 2012 at 11:23 pm - This is a comment from one of their readers:
Misleading and inaccurate.
You cite an article on Foursquare from AUGUST, then round DOWN. They get over five million check ins per day: http://mashable.com/2012/02/28/foursquare-hq-tour/ — so double what you’ve presented here.
Jumpstart was very apologetic and said they're trying to be as accurate as possible. Point being, these infographics are great to look at and give us an approximation of what's actually happening, trying to keep the facts straight, not an easy task for sure:-)
This data is courtesy of a new infographic from marketing consultancy firm Social Jumpstart, which takes a closer look and tries to be as accurate as possible at what happens in social media every 60 seconds.

"During a recent event at Pinterest’s headquarters in San Francisco, CEO Ben Silbermann revealed the service now plays host to more than 30 billion pins. It’s an impressive figure that looks even more promising when you learn that nearly 50 percent of those pins took place within the past six months."

Pinterest has garnered a reputation (whether incidentally or intentionally) as a website geared mostly towards females who need ideas for weddings, home décor, and recreation. Maybe you like the idea of Pinterest but not its subject matter. Maybe Pinterest just isn't for you. Is there hope for you? Yes, there is. As it turns out,…

La communication sur le web passe aussi par les images. L’explosion du réseau Pinterest est donc une évidence. C’est l’endroit où il faut être. Vous n’êtes pas encore convaincu ?

Pinterest has taken off in the past few months. According to a Shareholic study, it exceeds reddit, Google+, Linkedin, and YouTube as a referral source. It may seem as though everyone you know is Pinning something to the online bulletin boards to share their favorite articles, collections, and items available online.
This is a great social networking tool that you can use for educational purposes, whether you are a teacher or a student.
This tool can make it possible to create boards for specific projects and to collect and share lesson resources.
Be sure to see the education page!

Le tableau compare les avantages des Plateformes de formation, de Scoop.it et de Pinterest pour partager des contenus au sein d'une communauté d'apprentissage.
Je ne suis pas un anglisciste brillant, j'ai donc patiemment traduit le tableau, ...et cette traduction en a fait apparaître les faiblesses, que j'ai essayé de gommer ici en partie."

Blogs and Twitter aren’t the only social tools out there that can help you keep up with the latest and greatest developments in educational technology. Pinterest is rapidly becoming a favorite tool of educators all over the nation, and many have amassed some pretty great collections of edtech-related pins that teachers and students alike can use to explore new ways to learn, share, teach, and grow.
While it would be nearly impossible to highlight every edtech pinboard out there, we’ve shared some of the boards we think stand out among the crowd here. Many are maintained by major educational websites, key figures in edtech, and well-known bloggers, but others were created by teachers just like you who simply want to share resources and tips with others in education.

This piece was written by Dave Copeland for Readwriteweb. There have been many articles about Pinterest but if you do nothing else, read the white paper by Engauge and report they're referring to. It is absolutely the best one I've seen to date. (more details below)
The most important thing in this piece is the report, here's what you'll see:
A new Engauge white paper breaks down:
**the make-up of the average Pinterest user
**shows that the end result of less reading is more of a focus on content curation than creation.
**The timing of that trend, combined with a stunning design when Internet users are focusing more on visual than text, has allowed Pinterest to explode in popularity.
This is what caught my attention - a quote from a user:
"When I'm looking for new trends on specific topics like fashion or birthday party themes, I now search Pinterest first -- not Google." - Karah Street
