INFO for Families is now on Pinterest

Big Announcement of the day: INFO for Families officially has a presence on Pinterest.

Before I explain, I want to give a disclaimer to all the guys out there: I'm not all interested in hanging out on Pinterest for hours at a stretch, clicking on cute shoes, hairstyle looks, and home decorating ideas. Do not revoke my man card. However, given the site's popularity, I thought it was worth using as a means to highlight posts from INFO for Families.

I learned the value of Pinterest earlier this week when I had Jenifer and one other friend pin a link to my post on why your teenagers should see The Great Gatsby. I was amazed that I got more traffic from Pinterest than just about anywhere else. Apparently, this thing is here to stay.

So I am biting the bullet and setting up on Pinterest. Jon Acuff does it, and he's very cool, smart, and funny.

Here's how you can help me: ​

​First, please follow INFO on Pinterest. If you don't know what that means, don't worry about it. Here's the link: ​PINTEREST.COM/infoforfamilies. I am starting to populate a few boards with resources, but my main goal will be to link to posts from the blog on my INFO for Families board.

​Second, if you read something you like and feel would be helpful to others, share it on one of your boards. I am trying hard to make sure my posts/pictures are "Pinterest-friendly." I'm still learning what that means, so let me know if you have any suggestions.

Finally, if you DO see me start to share things like my favorite zesty low-calorie guacamole recipes, I officially give all the men in my life permission to give me a thorough beat-down. A swirly and a wedgie might also be in order.    ​

Thanks for understanding.​
