So who is pining for Pinterest Invites?

Heard of the latest sensation?

Pinterest is a virtual pinboard. Pinterest allows you to organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web. 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. It’s highly addictive, and you could spend hours a day on it if you’re not careful.

Take a look at my Pinboard & make sure to follow me on Pinterest. If you are curious about the browser layout, it is Rockmelt magic.

 

 

If you’d like an invite you can leave your email in the comments section and I will try to send you one. If you really really want the invite, you may: Follow me on twitter @RenegadeTramP OR Add this blog to your RSS reader OR Follow my blog @ Networked Blogs OR Like my facebook Page. Do any two of these and you have a 100% chance of getting an invite sent to you.

5 simple steps to get Timelined! – How to activate Facebook Timeline

Too eager to wait for the official release? Well you can have the facebook timeline active on your profile with a few easy steps:

1) Go to facebook developer page and give permission to the developer app (click Allow)

2) Click on “Create a new App” button on the right top corner

3) Name your app: Display name can be anything but the app namespace has to be unique and distinct from any other fb apps – for example you cant just name it timeline – I named mine tardis 🙂 how cool is that?. Confirm captcha and continue. To continue, you will have to add your mobile if you haven’t at the fb mobile confirmation.

4) Click on the Open graph link in the next page left hand menu or click here. Complete the two blanks in the fields with Watch a Movie for example. You are defining action and object… blah. You can add new action types later if needed. (Disclaimer: This exercise is for setting yourself up as a developer and does not matter in the least as you will never be using this app you are creating.). Click ‘Get Started’. Save changes in next 2-3 pages and continue to home page.

5) On your homepage, you will see this update –

Developer Release

Introducing Timeline – a New Kind of Profile

Timeline is your collection of all the photos, posts, and apps that tell your story. To learn about building new social apps for timeline, visit the Facebook developer site. Click on the ‘Get it now’ button to enable timeline.

There you go, you are now a time traveller in the virtual world.

Note: Click ‘Publish Now’ on the right corner to share your world and go public with your timeline.

Please note: During the developer release, only other developers will be able to see your new timeline. Everyone else will see your old profile.
