I will sometimes go back over to delve into a pin only to be disappointed that it is a dead end (i.e. just an image, a tumblr, or some site that throws up a warning from my spam blocker). It doesn't happen A LOT, but when it does happen it's typically some idiot Etsy store owner who pins a really nice image that a) links back to their Esty shop and is "no longer available" - as if it ever was, or b) leads to their shop and it's some crappier looking version of he professional image. Both things really tick me off - if you have to trick people into going o your Etsy shop you should probably just close it since obviously no one is visiting it ON PURPOSE. So I have to check ANY and ALL Etsy pins as most are dead or fraudulent "bait and switches." Unfortunately I learned this AFTER repinning many Etsy pins. I hate when pins just lead to a Flickr or Tumblr page when they're supposed to be a tutorial or something. GRRR. And one particular wedding dress pinner always sends up spam warnings, but they obviously have pinned thousands of things already so that's annoying. Then, finally, I hate when someone pins a specific item to a general blog instead of the actual page on that blog. I wish people would pin only the actual original page that the item comes from. I see your logic in liking first, but I don't have the patience to do that and then go back and check sources and then sort the pins. I pin exactly to the page the item belongs to and if I go back to explore that pin and its dead or bogus or useless - I just delete it.ppoddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05230738172384045217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8329513822232771648.post-6199100254881754872016-02-12T10:55:57.914-05:002016-02-12T10:55:57.914-05:00Wow!

I have since realized that a lot of things I pinned were going to places like tumblr or not even to the article. So I agree - I have since learned to like things first and go back and make sure it is a legit site before I pin it.

It was actually neat to see how differently people use the 'Like' feature. <br /><br />I seem to only 'like' things on Pinterest because I may want to use them for:<br /> - future social media campaigns<br /> - blog post, newsletter, or other writing inspiration<br /> - reference material<br /><br />Once I use a pin in one of these ways, I 'unlike' it as to not clutter my 'likes' page. Unfortunately, it tends to get cluttered and things I haven't seen in years are still out there. I won't even say how many likes I have now!

I really HATE it when things do not have sources sited on Facebook and YouTube, but on Pinterest I've always clicked on the poster or now on the "view" link - this is because it's mostly knitting or craft instructions. I don't pin it if it's a dead end. I do like the idea of using "like" as a holding pen for laterSmiling Twinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03648464613337553248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8329513822232771648.post-10971193964433613062015-12-16T20:04:50.677-05:002015-12-16T20:04:50.677-05:00I have never “liked” a post on Pinterest, unless I...I have never “liked” a post on Pinterest, unless I accidentally clicked the wrong button. I have 61 boards, 16.4k pins (increasing by an average of 150-200 a day), 391 followers (increasing by about 10 a day) – and a grand total of 19 likes.<br /><br />And I also pin to six very active (and actively pinned) group boards on makeup, runway hair, dance, doors (yeah, lol), photography, European travel and Italy.<br /><br />Generally I’m pretty quick to decide whether to pin something, i.e., I don’t weigh the pros and cons ad infinitum.<br /><br />That’s not to say that I haven’t spent an hour trying to find out whether a photo was *really* shot by Helmut Newton, who is in a Yousuf Karsh portrait, or the back story behind an Alfred Eisenstaedt or Henri Cartier-Bresson photo.<br /><br />It just seems redundant to “like” and “pin” a post. If I pin it, obviously I like it.

(eg. Christmas ideas, Antique beaded purses, miniatures etc.) I simply choose a pin that is representative of the board.<br /><br />I use 2 secret boards. "Temp" and "Working". I use them both when I'm pinning quickly or if I'm pinning a quantity of bookmarks.<br /><br />When I'm working quickly, anything I have a "board" for is pinned to "Temp". Once I have a quantity of pins, I can check for duplicates, check the links, and I can adjust the descriptions (if needed). Then I move the pins in groups to the correct board. <br /><br />I use my "Working" board for pins which catch my interest but for which I have no board. In my leisure time I go through the pins and decide if I want to create a board and follow other boards, discard it or create a new "Like" pin.Niinetahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16915175155778576367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8329513822232771648.post-29046531913592874512015-10-02T21:54:11.173-04:002015-10-02T21:54:11.173-04:00I'm afraid I must like the "like" pi...I'm afraid I must like the "like" pin.
