Pinterest is a social bookmarking site where users collect and
share photos of their favorite events, interests
and hobbies.
One of the fastest growing social networks online, Pinterest is the third-largest such
network behind only Facebook and Twitter. The start-up recently closed a $120 million round of funding and is looking to expand
into overseas markets such as France, Germany and Japan.

Online EtiquetteOnline Etiquette• Please be kind and remember that there are people on
the other end of your comments.• We think authenticity – expressing who you really are
and what you really like is more important than getting lots of followers.
• Encourage artists to create great work by linking back to their pages and leaving polite comments if you see anything that isn’t correctly credited.
• If you see porn, hateful stuff, or anything that encourage people to hurt themselves, please let us know!
• Pinterest is a growing changing community, so there will sometimes be bumps along the way. Please let us know what’s working and what’s not.
