Pinterest takes early social network lead in 2012 according to OnlineSchools.com infographic

Foster City, CA (PRWEB) March 07, 2012

OnlineSchools.com, a digital resource for online education from kindergarten to graduate school, recently launched an infographic that gives insight into the relatively sudden emergence of Pinterest, the latest social sharing phenomenon. In the last six months of 2011, the site experienced 815% traffic growth, leaving some wondering, “What is Pinterest?” Effectively, Pinterest acts as a virtual bulletin board, letting members “pin” visuals on the web and share them with their followers. By following any number of member-curated “boards” dealing with topics such as education technology trends , a “pinhead” may stay up to date through images that also serve as bookmarks. OnlineSchools.com created this infographic to break down why, and how, over one million members are using Pinterest.

“Our visitors often ask about Pinterest and how it relates to education,” said Seth Restaino, OnlineSchools.com spokesperson. “This infographic really helps to elucidate the idea of virtual pinboards. It will be interesting to see how students, teachers and so forth will integrate them into their curricula and coursework.”

Though Pinterest was founded by 29-year-old Ben Silbermann from Iowa, the vast majority of the site’s users are women. Among the most popular pinheads are moms and teachers who share ideas for classroom and at-home activities that they feel are engaging, creative and educational.
