Pinterest – a social media network for people to upload, save, sort and manage images, known as pins, and other media content through collections known as pinboards was launched in March 2010. Ben Silberman, Paul Sciarra and Evan Sharp- its founders started with the thought of creating a website that had more to do with the visual content of a conversation. Silbermann and a few programmers operated the site out of a small apartment until the summer of 2011 after he had already approached a magazine company to buy Pinterest from them. Luckily the deal did not work out and slowly yet steadily the website grew. By August 2011 it had become a part of the ‘top 50 websites of 2011’ article.
