Yes, I am on Facebook. And Twitter. And Pinterest.
I know, I know, Facebook has been around forever. Twitter too. I just like to know something isn't a fad before I dive head first into it. No pet rocks in my house.
So, if you want to Like me on Facebook click here -
To Follow me on Twitter click here -
And to see my Pinterest boards you can click here -
To be completely honest, I have been on all of these social media giants for a few weeks at least and have had them listed on my sidebar and my About Me page. I just wanted to be sure it was something I wanted to continue with before I did a post about it and I was inundated with followers (hah!).
For anyone unfamiliar with Pinterest, it is a place where you can catalog photos that you find on the web, keep them all in one place, organize them and still keep the link back to the original owner/artist of the photo.
For instance Robin at Happy at Home did a post on her vintage step stool. I thought it was pretty cute and I liked how she decorated it rather than just had it sitting there waiting to be stepped or sat upon. I mean, what's cuter than a birdhouse on a step stool.

Also, I found this photo on Linda from Itsy Bits and Pieces website and wanted to save it for future reference (I have a bunch of those basket lids in my garage that are just taking up space with no particular project in mind). So I pinned it on Pinterest so I wouldn't forget about it.
I have Pinterest boards devoted to vintage cameras, photography, trailers (you know, the cute travel trailers from the 50's and 60's), fall decorating and just plain kooky things to name just a few. Other people may have boards for favorite recipes, fashions, favorite quotes, etc. Just about anything you want to categorize can be categorized.
You do have to have a Facebook or Twitter account to register for Pinterest (you request an invite and once you get your invitation email, you can log in with one of those accounts). And only do so if you want to be addicted to Pinterest for the rest of your life and are ready for your dog to disown you for forgetting to feed him. Yes, it's that fun.
OK, gotta get back to pinning, tweeting and Facebooking. It is called Facebooking isn't it?
Do let me know how this is working out in a few months as I cannot have one more thing to keep up with. I have a FB account but really really dislike it. Thanks♥O
ReplyDeleteLOL! I am such a Pinterest addict...love, love, LOVE it...thanks for the sweet mention, too!
ReplyDeleteHi Pam! I liked your fb page, I'll be retweeting you and I have repinned some of your pins! We will be having lots of fun.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Susan and Bentley
I still don't understand half of it Pam...however, I am on it LOL! It is fun, that pinterest consumes me!
ReplyDeleteI belong to facebook and pinterest, but not twitter. I have to say, though, my heart still belongs to blogging! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteLOL! It froze over for me too Pam! I am new to FB and Pinterest as well. I still have no idea what I'm doing but it's sure fun!
ReplyDeleteYou are going to be a busy woman with all this. Oh wait--you are busy now right?
ReplyDeleteGood luck with all this.
Melinda
PS--I will be doing a psot on my red stool soon. :)
welcome to all the technology! that Pinterest is pretty addicting!
ReplyDeleteI've been afraid to jump into Pinterest because I'm already told I spend too much time on the laptop by my family. It seems to be a fabulous place to get eye candy though. I rarely fb. I'm too addicted to my blog. I'll always be eagerly checking out your latest blog post, Pam.
ReplyDeleteHugs!
I'll be interested to see how this goes for you. I signed up for twitter about a month ago and that's as far as I got...no tweets or anything. I have my personal FB, but I've been thinking of doing one for my blog, but I don't know. I'll have to check out your pinterest :)
ReplyDeletePam your so funny! Truth be told I still don't have a twitter account but I do have a facebook page. Not that I'm there much with all the time I spend on Pintrest. Once or twice a month maybe - - I really should get better! My daughter just opened a page on Facebook and now she hot stuff! - - kids!
ReplyDeleteI have been on facebook, I guess maybe 2 years now, but I don't want it connected to my blog (too much personal info for eveyone to see) and pinterest I have started, but haven't used it yet (I'm not sure that I will) I do see what has been pinned from my blog. My extended family and my friends don't know about my blog...looks like they will be finding me soon...got an e-mail from one of my daughters college friends saying that they found my blog thru ointerest:)
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Linda
Ok, you are branching out! Good for you!

Welcome to the 21st century! LOL! I'll FB you soon!
ReplyDeleteYou daredevil! I am gonna avoid those for now and just stick with the bloggin. My dog is crazy enough as it is (boxer...yeah). andrea@townandprairie
ReplyDeleteHey Pam I've been on fB for a few years now. I love Pinterest and have a board! I think i love it more than bloggoing...no pressure.
ReplyDeleteI am still learning how to organise the boards though!
I'm loving Pinterest, but haven't had much of a chance to fill up my boards yet. I'm still a Facebook virgin...on my list of things to do. I'm not sure if I'll ever get on the Twitter train though. Hmm..never say never, right?
ReplyDeleteCongrats and good for you. I can't do FB because of my dil's job with the Feds and I am afraid to start pinning because I don't think I can stand one more addiction!;>) xo Diana
ReplyDeleteOff to stalk you on Pinterest! lol
ReplyDeleteI thought I was the only person alive who still didn't have a facebook. I have thought about pinterest, though, mainly to keep track of the good ideas I see.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm watching you closely on Twitter now. But don't worry, I hardly ever go there. m.
ReplyDeleteYou're tweeting? I am so 1998.
ReplyDeletePam every time I visit your blog it's just looking more and more amazing! I have been on twitter for a while now, although no one follows as I havn't really advertised it, not a fan of Facebook, but Pinterest always seems appealing I just have no time to keep up. Congrats on your moving forward, lovely inspirational images, have a wonderful weekend, tami
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog,Thanks for sharing.I love pinterst but stilllearning how to use it,Joann
ReplyDeleteFacebook and twitter I tend to neglect but oh my goodness Pinning---I just love it. Organizational bliss!
ReplyDeleteHey Pam, I'll take one of those lids off your hands if you want! Let me know..... :-) sue
ReplyDeletePam-
ReplyDeleteI agree, Pinterest is very addictive! I just love the ability to catalog the images I love. Otherwise, I never remember where I see something. Your Pinterest boards are fun! :-)
