1. Pinterest is a very simple Web 2.0 application, and it is very user
friendly. Pinterest is an application where people share various ideas for
projects, interests, and hobbies, and literally, anyone who is computer
literate is able to understand how to work Pinterest. One must simply create
a profile and then they can pin away. All what needs to be done is to create
a board, give it a title, and then pin items that correspond with that board’s
title to it. The purpose of organizing pins is to be able to find ideas and tips
on whatever you are looking for rather than looking through many, many
different ideas on random topics. Go to the board that has the topic you are
interested in and discover great things!
Pinterest promotes collaboration because there are many users that
share information for many others to view. People get on Pinterest to find
recipes, beauty tips, lesson plans, etc. This allows people to collaborate
together in order to accomplish something. Pinterest does contain a real
time element due to ideas being share on what is ‘real time trending.’
Whatever is very popular at the time, there are dozens of pins that can be
found on it.
