Pinterest addicts this post is for you. Yes, you. Don't try to deny it, you know who you are. You, who bore your tech-challenged mom, boyfriend, brother, co-worker or pretty much anyone with ears with your incessant rambling about your latest project. You know, those cute cupcakes, or that wrap bracelet. You, who have sat at your computer for hours planning your next birthday party, searching for a recipe for the perfect chocolate chip cookies, wishing you suddenly won the lottery to be able to buy a Celine luggage bag in every color, or 1,001 different ways to eat bacon. Here at bloom, we salute you! To make it easier for you to pin all the things, we will write every week about a different pinterest tool or site we love, that will make pinning even more addictive fun. If this scares you, step away from your computer right now. You have been warned.
So, picture this: you're sitting there, sorting through your e-mails and you see that J. Crew has updated their catalog and want to pin it all to one of your style boards. But you see, you can't do that because you get that dreaded message box: "sorry, couldn't find any pinable images in this window". But YOU MUST pin those hot pink pants and that green shift! And no, you don't want to printscreen it and the upload it. If you're resourceful lazy like us, you must download Shotpin :) It's a Chrome browser extension that makes it easy for you to take a screenshot and pin it directly to any of your boards. Just as easy as using the pin it button! If you use another browser like firefox or safari, let us know in the comments and we'll google a great option for you. We recommend Shotpin because it's the one we use and works great. Happy pinning!
Pinterest-adictas, este post es para ustedes. Nos inspiramos en ustedes que hablan sin cesar de pinterest a su pobre mamá que apenas tiene celular, a su novio, hermano, compañero de trabajo o a quien tenga orejas para escucharlas. Que le cuentan emocionadas a sus amigas de los cupcakes de flores que hicieron o de esa pulsera de enrollar. Para ustedes que han estado sentadas por horas en la computadora planeando su cumpleaños, buscando la receta para las galletas perfectas, que quisieran ganarse la lotería para comprarse una cartera Celine en cada color del arcoiris, y que han descubierto 1,001 maneras de comer tocino. Acá en bloom, les damos un aplauso! *aplausos* Para hacer de Pinterest una experiencia más divertida adictiva, empezando esta semana vamos a estar comentando nuestras páginas de internet y herramientas favoritas sobre el tema. ¡Esperamos les sirvan!
Así que, imagínense esto: están revisando su correo y se dan cuenta que ya está disponible el catálogo nuevo de J. Crew, se meten a la página y quieren pinearlo TODO a sus style boards. Pero NO, no se puede porque tu browser te da el odioso mensaje: "sorry, couldn't find any pinable images in this window". Simplemente la vida no puede seguir si no pineas esos pantalones rosados y ese vestido verde neon! Sinceramente, te da demasiada hueva dar printscreen y subir el pin manualmente. Entonces, ¿qué hacer? Nosotras te recomendamos Shotpin :) Es una extensión del browser Google Chrome, que te permite tomar un screenshot o impresión de tu pantalla y subir directamente a cualquiera de tus boards, como que si estuvieras usando el pin-it-button. Shotpin está disponible solamente para Chrome, así que si usas safari o firefox, dejanos un comment para buscarte una buena alternativa, happy pinning! :)
