has been creating chaos in the courts lately, but did they actually
ever invent anything? This video explains that Apple is a recipe

innovate, it simply means that they are responsible for less than you
think.





This video covers the following:


Firewire, Newton,

firewire, newton, pda, gridpad, magic mouse, dogcow, Apple II e card,

pinterest: Fast growing Social network tool to improve your Blog, Website traffic




















Mashable "Expressing passion for a hobby is just as easy
as browsing for your next purchase. But what’s even more addictive about
the site — a collection of collections — is that it’s just as much
about the users as it is what they’ve posted."








Pinterest is a virtual pinboard type social networking site. You can browse pinboards created by other people to discover new things and get inspiration from people who share your interests.


People use pinboards to plan their weddings, decorate their homes, and share their favorite recipes.

 





What is a pin?



A pin is an image added to Pinterest. A pin can be added from a website using the Pin It button, or you can upload images from your computer. Each pin added using the Pin It button links back to the site it came from.


 






 To make Pinterest the most useful to yourself and others, follow best practices when pinning:



Pin from the original source.
Pin from permalinks.
Give credit and include a thoughtful pin description.  








What is the difference between Liking and repinning?



Liking a pin adds the image to your profile’s Likes section; the image does not get added to one of your boards.


Repinning an image allows you to categorize the image onto one of your boards. You can edit the description of a repin. The source-link of an image is saved automatically, no matter how many times it’s repinned.

 





What is a Pinboard?



A board is a set of pins. A board can be created on any topic, such as Cool Posters, Recipes For Dinner, or Wishlist. You can add as many pins to a board as you want.


 



 





What is following?



“Following All” means you'll have all of a user’s pins on all their boards shown to you in real-time on Pinterest. If the user makes new boards, you will automatically follow them.


You can follow individual boards if you're only interested in seeing a user's pins to specific boards.


You can unfollow boards and users at any time: they will not be notified.


 



 

 





To install the “Pin It” button in Firefox:








  1. Display your Bookmarks Bar by clicking View > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar

  2. Drag the “Pin It” button to your Bookmarks Toolbar

  3. When you are browsing the web, push the “Pin It” button to pin an image



Once installed in your browser, the “Pin It” button lets you grab an image from any website and add it to one of your pinboards. When you pin from a website, we automatically grab the source link so we can credit the original creator.

Google and Historypin launch online gallery to celebrate The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee



 


Pinning queens history





Pinning The Queen’s History is a special Collection that acts as a global archive of Her Majesty’s visits and the Silver, Golden and Diamond Jubilee celebrations. It has been created to mark The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee in 2012.


 







It is a way for users from all over the world and from every generation to share photographs, videos, other materials and memories of The Queen's visits and the Jubilee celebrations from throughout her reign.


 


Buckingham Palace has already provided a selection of images of items from the Royal Archives, plus there have been contributions from a number of other major archives. Now we’re looking for contributions from individuals and archives.


 







Throughout her six decades on the throne, The Queen has undertaken hundreds of visits around the United Kingdom and 261 official overseas visits to 116 different countries. Historypin is inviting people from around the world to submit photos, videos and other memories of The Queen during these visits.


 


So if you've got photos, videos or memories of Her Majesty visiting your town or documenting your own royal celebrations, do add them in here.


 


We want to get pins in the map for all Her Majesty's visits and Jubilee celebrations, dating back to 1952, when the idea of an online archive like this, contributed to and seen by anyone in the world, would have been completely unimaginable.


 


Pinning The Queen's History was developed by Historypin, with support from Google. 


 




Here is what I have pinned:





A collection of photos which took on the occasion of Queen’s visit to MGR Film city, Chennai on the  inauguration of the film ‘Marudhanayagam’ – an unfinished dream venture of Kamal Haassan dated 16th, October, 1997
