So I finally gave in and embraced Pinterest. Now I’m an addict. I don’t know how to stop. I don’t want to stop. I can’t really see any commercial benefit in it. BUT I LOVE IT! Do I have a problem?!
I was watching Madmen last night and thinking “wow all they do is drink, smoke and hang out in the office they had it sooooo easy” – but then I thought about our generation’s “distractions” – Pinterest, Twitter, Blogging – have they all just replaced the 11am whisky for inspiration? Definitely better for the liver but will the next generation look back and say “wow all they did was tweet a load of nonsense all day long and clip photos they liked onto boards!” Are all these outlets just an excuse for a good old doss during the workday in the name of creativity?! Either way I’m in a spot of bother as I’m now hooked, addicted and can’t get enough of Pinterest – going to bed tonight is going to be a challenge, I think I’ll be twitching and going through Cold Turkey.
It’s not all bad though, as I did come across some beautiful images yesterday – see below – and am starting to think that like the 11am whiskey some things get the creative juices flowing better than others.
Follow me on Pinterest so I can lure you into all it has to offer – I promise you there’s no hangover.
