\"Pinterest<\/a>We’ve talked a lot about blog apps. We’ve shown you how to make an app from a WordPress blog and how to make one from a Blogger blog. We discussed Posterous. What if you want an app that carries your ideas but isn’t a blog?<\/p>\n

You may have seen friends using Pinterest<\/a> on Facebook. Pinterest is a tool that lets you save any idea that you see. For example, if you see a recipe, you can pin it to your Pinterest board. If you see a craft project you’d like to do, you can pin it. It’s a way to keep track of all the things you’d like to do later and share it with your friends at the same time.<\/p>\n

What kind of apps can I make from Pinterest?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pinterest is an easy way to make an app that showcases recipes. You can make a cookbook that uses recipes from all over the internet, giving proper credit to the recipe writers, but still compiling them for your app users.<\/p>\n

Likewise, you can create a craft idea showcase, giving people ideas for crafts that they can create.<\/p>\n

Pinterest is also an easy way to create a virtual bookshelf, filled with your reading recommendations.<\/p>\n

Why turn these things into an app?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Imagine you’re baking. Would you want to have to go to your computer to find out recipes? It’s much easier to check the app in your Android phone.<\/p>\n

Likewise, if you’re buying supplies for an art project, it’s much easier to have an app in the store with you to tell you exactly what to buy.<\/p>\n

Even if you’re planning on buying books in a bookstore, it’s nice to have recommendations posted in an easy-to access app.<\/p>\n

Pinterest is invite-only. How do I get a Pinterest invite?<\/strong><\/p>\n
