It's an E-pin-demic.

My Zeno colleagues and I have become completely obsessed with Pinterest. And what's not to love?

Pinterest is a visual and social bookmarking tool that keeps track of all the things you find online. Day dreaming of that trip to Aruba? Pin it! Hunting for the perfect mid-season winter boot? Pin it! DIYing your kitchen and looking for tile? Pin it! Planning and party and looking for the perfect dip? Pin it! Pinterest is part mood board, part collage, part coffee table book and part art. And I'm totally loving it.

What makes it so easy is how you tag things. Once you set up your account, you drop the "Pin It" bookmark into your bookmark toolbar. If you see something you like while you're surfing, simply "pin it" from your toolbar and add it to your board. It will organize all of your pins into individual boards by topics so you can easily find things once you've pinned them. Similar to Twitter or Tumblr, you can follow people and see what they're pinning and repin the things you like. You can also tag your friends in pins if you find something they like.

It reminds me of my high school bedroom. Much to my mother's dismay, I, like most teenage girls, used to cut out magazine photos of my favorite fashions (Sassy Magazine!), crushes (Kirk Cameron!) and ski gear (Rossignol!) and tape them on the walls of my bedroom. The cool part is being inpsired by what all of your friends are pinning. Like it or not, you can clearly see when someone is dreaming of a wedding pre-proposal, a shopping trip when money may be tight or remodeling their home (again!). You can't help but fall in love with something that is so easy and allows you to indulge so much.

I say, let the surfing and pinning, admiring and repinning begin.
