Pinterest brings to mind the amount of information that we come across everyday. Of course, Pinterest deals mostly with images and video, but we see a large amount of stuff these days.
We read articles, hear stories and poems, make clever tweets and posts, see awesome images, and watch fantastic videos. However, we can't possible retain all the knowledge that gets stuffed into our heads each day!
Sites like Pinterest that allow you to capture images you've seen online (with a link to get back to where you found them), do us the fantastic service of allowing us to revisited things that we found interesting before.
Cheesecake-stuffed strawberries; I don't want to forget this!
Also, in the case of the photo above, you can also find new things on Pinterest. Pinterest is almost the image equivalent to Wikipedia in that it is a collective knowledge of everyone on the site. I found those under the "Food & Drink" category and my mouth has been watering ever since.
People post other cool things like tattoos they'd wish to get or Fitspo/Thinspo (inspiration to slim down or work out). There are also encouraging quotes and funny things on that website.
Check this out! One of the best tattoos I've seen: "Love never ends"
It all comes together in this zen, indie feel - like anything you see, you can acheive. There aren't any (at least that I've seen) trolls discouraging anyone or starting unnecessary chaos.
It is a truly inspirational website that encourage all my friends to use!
