754 Pinterest

SNS requires our time. It takes time to open the App and read through the timeline, and maybe to push Likes or Share. It's true SNS is effective to kill time in the train, just like looking at billboards outside the window. The problem is it often takes your time more than planned, because the information you get is unpredictable --- the scope, the depth and the direction of the way you go into the sea of information. Surely, that's the fun of SNS and I never mean to deny it. 

Pinterest is a little bit different. It's a digital scrap book. You don't need to post your life but you can just pin some pictures you like. I like its simplicity. It's all about pictures and you don't have to care about what's the story behind it or what people says about it. Pinterest is unique because it doesn't feel like a social media. It looks more like your private picture library. And those pictures you like and you want to get together will sometimes tell you what you are feeling and to what you are paying attention. It's a simple record of your inner visionary. Looking at Pinterest archives is sometimes a quiet dialogue with your inner self.
