share this story
If you haven't heard of Pinterest already (we'd be surprised if that were the case), it'd be good to get acquainted.
The social image-sharing network is one of the fastest growing sites on the web. According to recent data released by Experian Hitwise, the site's total page views increased by 21 percent in the U.S., placing it among the 30 most-viewed sites in the U.S. The New York Times reported on new Nielsen data that Pinterest attracted 16.1 million U.S. unique visitors this past January, double the amount it had just two months earlier in November 2011.
With its next development already in the works (SPOILER ALERT: It's an iPad app!), it's really only a matter of time before you encounter Pinterest (or one of its many clones) through Facebook, Twitter, or somewhere else around the web.
Thankfully, whether you're already head over heels for Pinterest or hesitant to jump on the bandwagon, the vast, image-filled social networking site offers something for almost everyone -- from architecture junkies to cooking enthusiasts, animal lovers to fashionistas.
Flip through the slideshow below to check out some of the most beautiful, fascinating pinboards, featuring cool-looking forts, interspecies cuddling, mouth-watering pizza, and much, much more. Vote for the ones you'd most like to follow.
