Pinterest, as many of you know, is a visual pinboard social media site where people can post their pictures and videos of their favorite subject matter. The chance to share with others with common interests has made this one of the fastest growing social media sites ever. Adorable bulldogs. Drake University is doing vast things by their Pinterest account, as well as. Think of Pinterest as a virtual pinboard or bulletin board, but with organizational and bookmarking tools. If you're interested in a subject, such as cooking or decorating, find images you like on Pinterest or on the web, and then save those images to your Pinterest bulletin board. Pinterest is a red app with a white, stylized 'P' on it. If you're logged into Pinterest, doing so will open the home page. If you aren't logged in, enter your email address and password, then tap Log In. When you create a pinboard, make sure you put keywords in the description and include links to boost your SEO ranking. Pinterest is currently using the “do-follow” links that you would use under a picture that you pin on your board for the description. Many other social bookmarking sites use this.

I want to share with you how to create a Pinterest collaborative board. It has been very useful to me as an educator to share my pins and gain followers.

In fact, Pinterest has reported that over 500,000 teaching and education ideas are pinned every single day. Wow!

I honestly have to admit that I spend time on Pinterest daily. It is so inspiring… and addicting… and amazing!

When you create a new board on Pinterest you have the ability to decide if only you will pin to the board or you can invite others to pin to the board along with you.

Most people actually just go solo in the pinning department, but a collaborative Pinterest board is actually very useful in many situations.

Now you may be wondering, what is the difference between collaborative boards, shared boards, community boards and contributor boards? Absolutely nothing. They have plenty of nicknames, but they are all the same.

At this time Pinterest doesn’t really give us a way to only search for collaborative boards. You will have to look out for the group icon at the top of the Pinterest Collaborative board.

So, why would you want to create a collaborative board and ask others to help contribute? Since Teacher Karma is pretty much designed for teachers, homeschoolers and parents, I will keep my focus in that area:

• Share holiday or seasonal ideas. This is actually one of the most used type of collaborative board.
• Plan and contribute ideas for an educational event, such as a Family Literacy Night, Book Club or after school tutoring.
• Connect with other teachers and maybe even gain a few new followers.
• Lesson planning with a group of teachers, maybe your grade level campus team.
• My favorite: If you sell or buy products on Teachers Pay Teachers, you can help share your paid and free products by pinning and sharing to a collaborative pinboard.

1. 1. Start out by going to your personal Pinterest page. Here is an example of mine:

   2. Click on Create a Board.
   3. Name your Pinterest board. Think about what words a person would type to search on that topic.
   4. Select a board category: This is actually pretty important. When a person is searching on a certain topic, the category will help guide them to (hopefully) your pin. Most of the time my category is education.
   5. Now, Who Can Pin? You have *Just Me and *Me + Contributors. Select Me + Contributors.
   6. You can either type in a person’s email address or their Pinterest ID and then click on the Invite button.
   7. Pinterest will send the person a message and the person can either accept or decline the invitation.
   8. You now have a Pinterest Collaborative Pinboard. Invite your friends and have fun pinning!

Pinterest is starting to make a few waves around the Internet as the newest social network with the potential to hit it big.

It’s a nice, simple social network that allows people to share interesting links with one another. It’s a little like Facebook or Twitter, with a lot less inane chatter between the interesting bits.

Pinboard for Pinterest is one of the better applications out there that links in to your Pinterest account.

It displays your pinboard nicely on the iPad’s screen, and even has a workaround add-on to Safari that allows you to directly pin links to your pinboard.

Obviously, the value of this depends on how much of a user of Pinboard you are, but if you’re looking for a new social network, then this is one that is very well suited to tablet devices.

This app was reviewed on an iPad 1v

Pros: Pinboard is a great applicataion for displaying Pinterest; a social network you may want to get involved in now

Cons: It’s not free, and Pinterest is still marginal enough you might not see return on this social network for a while.
