Pinterest was publicly launched just over two years ago at the Alt Design Summit right here in downtown SLC. And within those two short years, it’s skyrocketed to become one of the fastest growing social networks around. The real power of Pinterest is that it’s a tool first and a network second.

I’m a sucker for the convergence of social technology and good, old-fashioned scavenger hunts. I’ll run across town to touch the Big Aristotle and I’ll stay glued to the Twitter to see where Mr. Hawk is dropping a stash of goods.

We are making it up as we go.” The world of social media/networking/marketing/pillaging/plundering/scamming/saving/building is fresh territory for everyone (whether they admit it or not).
