What is the purpose of the timeline thing in Facebook? I don't use FB and don't plan to. So am just curious.

Timeline is dumb, unless you're someone who posts tons of pictures and comments. I have 11 pictures on FB, so my timeline wouldn't be worth much. Shooting Star, the purpose of it, supposedly is to give a visual of your "life." But, it's only your life as you've posted on FB. My son has it, but it hasn't changed the way he posts.
I have no interest in Pinterest. I just don't spend that much time on the computer, except for TE. If I need to research, I do, but it's pretty easy to do that on your own.

We are in the process of enclosing half of the side porch to make a mud room & redoing the living room and I have found Pinterest very valuable for finding and storing ideas.
Someone had "pinned" a photo of a closet which I clicked on, which led to a web site, and I worked my way though 4 or 5 links (you know how that goes!) and I found a photo of exactly what I want my new mud room to look like. I've got the photo up on my idea bulletin board.

I just joined Pinterest and I don't really get it. I do like finding recipes, though I still tend to just do it through blogs and FB. I guess it's better for companies/ brands? I don't know.
