I officially do not understand Pinterest.

I don’t get the appeal, or what its actual intended use is.

I might just give it up now.

Note from 2022 Rachel: I did, in fact, give up.

Note from 2023 Rachel: I settled on “don’t”

I want to give pinterest a solid try, but I don’t want to detract from my tumblr feed; that is, I don’t want to post interesting things anywhere except tumblr, and I don’t want to cross-post. Anyone have any good suggestions for how to use pinterest?

Using AirParrot to stream from my Macbook to my TV using AppleTV; awesomely doing two things at once using extended desktop.

These movies side-by-side in my Netflix recommendations made me laugh pretty hard… yes I am sleep deprived, why do you ask?

Digital New Year’s Resolutions

For part of my (digital) New Year’s Resolutions this year, I decided to delete my accounts on social media services that I don’t use. (Although I would love to cut Facebook, that’s probably not going to happen.) I love trying out new social media goodies, but it’s impossible for me to keep up with all of them. So over the course of the year I am going to try and use the services I belong to, and if I don’t, they’re getting cut.

First on the list and certainly, definitely cut, is dailybooth, which I never use, find sort of narcissistic, and is pretty much just full of teenage cam whores and amateur porn (although really, what else would you expect). The rest of the list is, so far:

  1. dailybooth
  2. flickr
  3. picplz
  4. foursquare
  5. posterous
  6. flavors.me
  7. google+
  8. readernaut
  9. goodreads
  10. linkedin

Just got this for Christmas. Best present ever!
