    Hi. Don't feel behind. I recently got one. It is a place where people post funny pictures, creative ideas and fun crafts. You can "pin" something that someone else puts on their wall. Then, it shows up on yours, and the people who "follow" you can see it. People use it for different reasons. I look at baking and diy clothing Ideas. It is a great place to steal cool ideas and say you thought of it.

    I think the best description of it is right on their site: http://about.pinterest.com/ and it shows some sample people with their pictures.

    Basically as the person above me describe, it's a way to show off your hobby and allow you to connect with others who have similar interests and want to show it off. The idea is to share pictures of your hobby, then either inspire others or gain ideas from others.

    My friggin crack addiction. LOL!!! Just kidding. It is a giant site deticated to just what you find interestinf. You 'pin' pictures into a personalized pinboard you create and all that. Its a good way to waste useless time.
