So I have never really been the most savvy person on earth when it comes to technology.
It took me a while to jump on the Facebook bandwagon and I could never get into Twitter.
BUT....
I have recently started using a few social networks/sites/apps that I absolutely LOVE and would like to share with all of you.
You'll be thanking me later : )
First and foremost: Pinterest
OMGOSH. This site is the greatest thing since sliced bread. It's like your own personal scrapbook of things you find online that you like and want to remember. It allows you to "Pin" things you see online that you like to a "board" that all of your followers can view. You can have as many boards as you want with different purposes like fashion, food, home...anything your heart desires! It is so fun to pin and also to see what cool things your friends have found.
I even get a little competitive with it and am like "Wait...she's pinned like 324,239,098 things in the last hour and I've only pinned like 324,239,091!!!! Must keep pinning!!!"
Ok that's probably just me...but trust me. This is FUNNN.
You have to be invited to use the site so put your email address in a comment and I'll invite you. Otherwise you have to wait like a week to join.
Next Fav thing: Instagram
Have you ever been on Facebook or blog stalking and wondered, "how do those people put those cool effects on their pictures?" Again, probably just me.
BUT I have cracked the code! This is an phone app (not sure which phones can do it, I have an iPhone) that allows you to take pictures, add cool effects to them, and then upload them to a newsfeed so your friends can see. It automatically saves the images to the photo album on your phone so you can put them on Facebook or e-mail them to yourself. It makes taking pictures so fun and can make your crappy pictures look like little works of art. See:
And lastly but not leastly: Beluga
Beluga is another phone app. It allows you to have group conversations called "pods" on your phone. It's like instant messaging but with a group of people and from your phone. And its free. You can have a bunch of different pods/convos going on at once. Its a quick and easy way to talk to your friends without having to text them individually. AND its way COOLER guys!!!!!
So there you have it. My guide to the latest and greatest.
Enjoy : )
