Pinterest starts weekly newsletter

Pinterest, the social network that currently drives more traffic to other sites than any other social network, snuck out a newsletter this past Saturday, which is likely to be a weekly occurrence. The newsletter, according to Mashable, is designed to provide Pinterest users with more personalized content and make it easier for users to find more pins that are interesting to them, as well as see how their own pins are doing. Because Pinterest is so hot with driving users to other websites, the social network is being flooded with content. The e-mail with the weekly newsletter is formatted in the same way as the website, with a pinboard presenting the personalized pins. The pins in the e-mail; when clicked on, lead to the websites directly from which the content is taken. However, interactions with these newsletter pins is limited as while users can click on them, they cannot repin or post their own pins directly from the newsletter.
