Tom Jacobs at DePaul shared an article with me yesterday that genuinely made me interested in actually using Pinterest. I scavenged an account early when the service was launched, but saw little reason to use it. However, a blogpost (A researcher’s survival guide to information overload and curation tools) on LSE’s website has given me pause to reconsider.

I think I will give it a go now, perhaps spending a week or two to see if the concept grows on me.

The article also shares some other social media tools. Definitely worth reading.
