Pinterest Brings Us Ideas Collected OGC Winter Decorating Ideas for Home & Garden Created by Merle Cole OGC Board VP

How Pinterest Works � People post ideas, photos, images, links, how-to’s to the internet � These are pinned to their “boards” � According to themes – common and specific � Comments can be added � Boards and pins can be shared, collected, deleted � You can invite friends to add things to a shared board

Is it hard? How much does it cost? � It is very easy (OGC members can help) � It is free (except for seeing commercials on some sites) � And it is fun � Can be a great source of ideas, entertainment, inspiration, addiction � You do have to sign up but you can set privacy limits � If notices are a nuisance, you can turn them off
