Just wondering what you think about Pinterest.   

Seems there are a lot more female users than men, but this seems to differ in the U.S. vs. Britain.

Any of you use it?  What do you think?

Why do you think it has been growing in popularity?

(And no, I don't have a Messenger Plus! for  Pinterest software...just curious!)

It's a fast growing social photo sharing network (just google it and you'll see) but the users in the U.S. are predominantly female.  That's exactly why I am asking this forum, as it would be interesting to know if there is any change in the demographics or usage among most of our members on the forum who (claim to be) male and young.

This would be completely obtainable had the majority of the community not left.

1) Never heard of it before.
2) Looks like a Lifetime commercial break.
3) It has?  Really?

Yes, I'd have to agree :p  A quick scan of the front page suggests a ratio of about 1000:2.

We all know that there are no girls on the internet.
