One tip for someone starting out on Pinterest: Make sure the link you assign to your image is a permalink.

By that I mean, make sure that it's a link that will always take someone to that same piece of content. The photo might be on page 2 of your blog now, but in time it will be pushed back to blog page 3, then 4, etc. As a Pinterest user, it's definitely frustrating when the source link doesn't take me to the correct source.

Also, the word from SXSW this week is that there's a big update coming to Pinterest soon. We'll have to wait and see what impact it has.
