I haven't used Pinterest a lot. I signed up and then lost interest because I was having problems using it. Every time I go to the board, there is a big message that says I am supposed to click somewhere to validate my e-mail address. I haven't done it. And after what I've read here, I don't plan on doing it. And I think I might try to stay away from it period if they're tracking people!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/down-the-rabbit-hole-with-pinterest#post-1128946 Sat, 04 Jan 2014 23:19:27 +0000 Isabel 1128946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been feverishly giving thumbs down to a bunch of pins that they put on my board...I hoper they get the message to leave me alone. I was very disappointed to read that they were making recommendation based on "internet sites that you visit". &nbsp;What are they doing tracking me ? &nbsp;YUCK !</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/down-the-rabbit-hole-with-pinterest#post-1128931 Sat, 04 Jan 2014 23:00:33 +0000 Caro in Oz 1128931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DG I did the same but I'm still getting really stupid "related" pins. It's so annoying because it was such&nbsp;a great tool. </p> <p>ETA - just tried it again - no "related pins" yippee &amp; thanks :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/down-the-rabbit-hole-with-pinterest#post-1128859 Sat, 04 Jan 2014 21:08:57 +0000 Anonymous 1128859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha! I fell out with Pinterest a couple of months back when I started to get lots of 'related pins' on my home page and all of them were pictures I didn't like. I bombarded Pinterest with e-mails saying how much I hated the feature and I got a couple of replies back which were non-committal. After a few days I de-activated my account. I re-activated a week later and all the 'related pins' were gone and never came back. I got an e-mail today saying they were trying a new feature of a first/home just 'following ' page which must mean they took on board some of what I said. I pays to be persistent. Thanks for your links. I'm off to peruse! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/down-the-rabbit-hole-with-pinterest#post-1128785 Sat, 04 Jan 2014 19:37:42 +0000 Classically Casual 1128785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pinterest &amp; I are friends again.&nbsp; The only marketing thing they do now is once a week send me an email of pins I might like.&nbsp; This week they succeeded.</p> <p>The specific board is entitled "Women over 59".&nbsp; But it's the product of "Melody's Place" which has 126 boards!&nbsp;&nbsp; There are many topics including high waisted, rectangular bodies, etc., etc, as well as non-fashion stuff.</p> <p>So as a public service to all the snowed in/cabin feverish/football widows who still have&nbsp; internet access here's the link:<a href="http://www.pinterest.com/christamelody/" rel="nofollow">http://www.pinterest.com/christamelody/</a></p> <p>(And if the link doesn't work, search for "Melody's Place.")</p>
