The funny thing is, and I was JUST thinking about it this morning as I was watching some new "Know Your Meme" videos (SO not as good as they used to be. Sigh.) was that with the new YouTube UI, I hate it. I loved it at first, but now it really bugs me, and it's actually kept me away from YouTube more than before. I used to surf around a bit, watch this, watch that, but now I only go there maybe once a month, or even less. My consumption of YouTube videos is perhaps less than others anyway--I use them for class from time to time, and/or link them to my Delicious account or re-blog something on Tumblr or G+, but I rarely use the site proper. It's amazing how much YouTube has become part of all our lives, just being something that we all rely so heavily on. I just wish they'd re-think that UI so I could enjoy myself again. However, do you feel YouTube is becoming "bloated?" Like a MySpace before the fall or maybe FB? Too much going on, too big, etc. Sites like VHX or Viemo are much more refreshing, light, easy, and look better. Thoughts? Blessings, Josh Leah,

Thanks for your great comment! I do the same thing - usually to find more detailed instructions or a recipe, for example. I also agree with what you said about missing out on the other action by only following people we know. I go into categories I like and will follow people's boards who have a good collection going, whether I know them or not in order to keep my experience interesting. What I'm most interested in is seeing how Pinterest will attract more male users. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts! Hey Sabrina! Thanks for your great comment!

I really enjoy how it's broadening the variety of websites I visit everyday. If a pin is interesting I usually visit the website from which it was originally pinned. It's definitely a good way for companies to get the attention of consumers today, who for the most part want to get information quickly and effortlessly. However, by actively following only certain pinners and boards we could be missing out on the rest of the pinterest action.. that's why I like how each category has their own pins, I think it opens up the discussion a little bit more.

I know you're a busy guy, so thanks for taking the time to comment. I agree with what you said about this being easier to use than a site like Delicious - we are an image based society, so great pictures of products, art, fashion, food, people, etc, are quick to grab the attention of potential target audiences. It will be interesting to see how non-image based industries will use it to attract attention... Cheers! - Leah Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Andrea!

Always enjoy your comments here! I use Delicious, as well, but for more word-based bookmarking, i.e. interesting articles, reports, blog posts, etc. For videos, I use VHX, though I do sometimes save them in Delicious, as well (or just mark them as favs on YouTube). Pinterest, besides bookmarking images, is really inspirational to me. It's like browsing through the best magazines, but only dealing with images instead of full articles and "ads" (though you could argue people are using Pinterest to advertise their product indirectly). Regardless, if I see an image I like - be it a recipe/picture of food (and we all know how much I love taking photos of food), a quotation, outfit, or home decor - I like it, repin it, and then visit the site where it's originally from. I'm interested to see how it will progress/transform over the next couple of years. Thanks, as always, for sharing your thoughts! - Leah Hey Josh! Always enjoy your comments here!

Simple enough to be used in a variety of fields and easier than classic bookmarking sites like delicious - Indeed I love and use Delicious on a daily basis, but this is a different environment. It's still early, but it's spreading fast. Curious to see which new doors it will open.

For the most similar thing I need, I use Delicious. On the other hand, if I were to join it, it would be yet another social network that I'm on, with none of my friends on it (Path, anyone?). But if people are finding it useful and relevant, then I hope it's good for them! It seems pretty interesting, but I don’t think is of much use to me right now.

It's easy to feel like our lives our separated into different roles, the teacher, the student, the employee, the artist, the significant other, the relative, etc - and even more so now that we also have to deal with a digital life and a real world life - so this quotation was a great reminder that the true art of living is when work and play is one in the same. Pursuing what we're about so no one can tell if we're working or playing is such a pleasant thought to me... and a good motto to live by. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts.
