I suspect that there are very few people left on the planet who don’t know what Pinterest is. Granted, I think those 5 people read Relishments and I love them very much (Hi Mom!), but seriously, Pinterest is everywhere. For those unaware, Pinterest is a “virtual pinboard” that lets you save images from all over the web onto different themed boards. Anyone can see your boards and you can look at everything that’s being pinned and add it to your boards.
I’ve had this Pinterest post in the works for a while, as it seemed like everyone else is writing them. I’m certainly not as into pinning as some people; I’m not that crafty and I try to save food links I like to Evernote. Still, every once in a while it sucks me in and I pin a whole bunch of things. I recently pinned my 200th item and decided that this post could wait no longer.
Without further ado, some of my favorite pins:

Finally, the most interesting Pinterest tip I’ve seen yet: If you visit http://pinterest.com/source/the address of any site, you can see all the pins from that site. So, if you enter http://pinterest.com/source/ikea.com, you see all the pins from IKEA. It was really neat to see what was getting pinned from my site.
