A social network that I have been apart of and really enjoy is Pintrest. I joined last year mainly because I took up sewing and heard that Pintrest had a lot of really good "Do it yourself" types of crafts. To get better acquainted, I created multiple categorized boards of things of interest such as photography, to DIY, to food, fashion, kids, travel, parties and more. In creating these boards with "pins of interest" others and friends are able to view them and vise versa.
Being that one of my main interests was the DIY section, I was able to link to other websites and peoples blogs who show step by step on how to make a skirt, for example, or baby clothes. You get a lot of really good ideas with things like making your own gifts for friends/family and themes for baby or bridal showers. Not to mention, I've also retrieved some really good dessert recipes! These are just a few things of my interest. In all honesty I believe that Pintrest is a female dominated website because it has more of womens interest with age ranging from teenager to elderly but mostly women who seem to be between the ages of 20's to early 40's. Women, in general, love sharing ideas and seeing what their friends are doing so I don't believe that this website is a waste of time. I think it can improve a person's life who may not be so "creative" and help them to get inspiration. In my opinion, Pintrest is a clever and unique way of expressing one's personality and sharing it with the world in a safe way!
