I know that as a prof, you want to keep yourself a bit anonymous... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-does-pinterest-work#post-638603 Tue, 05 Jun 2012 22:46:36 +0000 christieanne 638603@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's much faster to get from a member than wait for the site - Put the little Pin It icon in your task bar and you are ready to Pin </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-does-pinterest-work#post-638572 Tue, 05 Jun 2012 21:14:59 +0000 Inge 638572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And the invitation has been sent!

I actually never got a direct invite from Pinterest. Once you have an account, you can invite friends. I think that would be the fastest way to get started. If you like, I can send you an invitation right now. Just PM me your email address and I'll get on it:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-does-pinterest-work#post-638563 Tue, 05 Jun 2012 20:43:20 +0000 Jonesy 638563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I "requested an invitation" from Pinterest, so I could start using it. They sent me an email thanking me for my request, and said they would be sure to send me an invitation soon. What the heck? Are they checking my credit rating or running a background check, or what :)? </p>
