Pinterest is still popular. When it adopted mandatory sign-in to browse the site many years ago, it undoubtedly turned some users away. I've been using Pinterest for a long time and more recently it feels that adverts are more prevalent and more prominent than in earlier years. Despite those changes, Pinterest is still useful for finding visual inspiration. It's a richer source of finding images compared to Google images. Some popular image categories: - Recipes (searching for recipes by photo results can be more effective than text-only search) - Travel - Architecture - Interior design - Anything relating to visual design (illustration, typography, web design, comics, etc.) One final point: many 'pins' link to blogs and sites that would never turn up in a Google search (or are buried in Google results). Sometimes that makes Pinterest a more serendipitous browsing experience compared to Google search.
