Giving Your Business a Boost with Pinterest

Pinterest is a newer social network that I’m not super-familiar with (I’m more of a Twitter fan myself), but it looks like the days of it being a formidable marketing tool are more or less here. While looking into the website a bit for PM’s purposes, I found a bunch of cool links that I thought would be helpful to anyone else considering the website for marketing their business.

MONDAY MIKE FACT: I watched the Oscars for the first time in forever last night. It was … okay? I guess? I’m not sure I get the appeal. I mean I enjoy watching famous people have fun as much as the next guy, but my thing is that no one at the Oscars seems to really want to be there? I don’t know, most of the actors seemed to either be transparently feigning joy or outright rolling their eyes in boredom. Maybe I’m reading into it too much, but watching people not have fun is … not fun? Can anyone explain to me what I’m missing here?
