New Notification System!

Loves to help

I'm LOVING the new notification system! It makes it so easy to see what's being pinned and by who. I never realised some of my older pins were still going viral 🙂 

The only thing I've noticed is my profile on desktop looks a little small, like it should be on mobile. The rest of it looks great though! 

@therealsouthamerica Are you seeing a similar thing with the profile? 

@PinterestGabby @PinterestJanice SERIOUSLY IN LOVE with this new system for pinners! Such a small change but makes a huge difference.

You're much more ambitious with your pins than I am... I have a hard enough time just making your standard, everyday, average pins! lol. Cause all I have to work with is an iPhone 6S camera.

I was in pretty good shape at 50, but now at 68 not so much! You look pretty darn good for 50 my friend!

@foodiehomechef Now you see when you show me the love like that I will be your friend for life❤️....its the skateboarding I am pretty sure thanks for the support its really appreciated! I work really hard!

I use the same phone as you  my husband and I get the small ones and our daughter has the mama of iPhones. Just get a tripod that you put the phone into and it follows you while your working and or records the sound I think their like $40 and I believe they ship I will get the name of the company for you (US Store). I think if you did a Story Pin with audio it would go crazy on Pinterest .... lets be honest no-one talks except for @divinehostess on her Story Pin. People really like it. 

I get the feeling if I were in your kitchen I would never leave......🤔 Your Awesome😎Lisa😁

@therealsouthamerica  Lol about what you said about never leaving my kitchen... you might be right!

I'm on a fixed income & not sure if I can fit any $ into the budget for more toys like a tripod... but you never know... maybe I'll get lucky & find some extra bucks somewhere.

My daughter, who's now 42, always has the most up to date iPhone with all the bells & whistles. I wish I could get a more current iPhone as they look really amazing!

@foodiehomechef I know I am right.....If you can't do the tripod no worries get someone to videotape you and then use the voice function in the new Story Pin - You can voice over the video which I think is the best feature ever sometimes people need to hear a voice.

My daughter is 12 going on 21 and my husband does everything for her but when it comes to the tech she is expensive no question - all her friends from AZ & CA are online and she really misses them and in addition she has made friends with other 12 year olds from like Michigan | New York | Illinois | Indiana you name the state they are online playing video games they even have movie night on Saturdays can you believe it?

@therealsouthamerica   Oh yeah... kids these days are growing up in a whole different techie world! I'm old enough to remember when phones didn't even have dials! You had to pick up the receiver & the operator would come on & ask for the number you want to call lol.

@therealsouthamerica   Here's another anecdote that shows what an antique I am... I started using computers when Windows didn't exist & for the first few years you could only work on PC's in DOS with a black screen! lol
