Thing 7. Content Saving and Sharing

I downloaded Pinterest for this Thing. I admit I looked down on Pinterest for a while, thinking it belonged in the realm of scrapbookers (sorry!) but now I can see I was wrong. Visually, of course, it's great and must be especially impressive on a Retina iPad. I also like how you can structure and annotate your pins. The examples linked from the Thing website, showing how libraries are using Pinterest, show how creatively the app. can be used to promote library content, events and provide info about their communities. Again, it's a little clunky to use on the phone, but Pinterest is a pretty nifty app.
