This is one step Pinterest could have taken, but I don't feel they're going in the right direction. What I see Pinterest doing here is telling website owners, "Hey, our users might share your content (copyrighted or not) on our website, but if you don't want us to pin your copyrighted content you need to install this code on your site".
The burden of effort on preventing the pinning of copyrighted materials should lie with Pinterest and not the copyright holder.Hi Jen, not sure how to best approach it - but we need to do something.
Agreed Linda, the fact that they even have a website to start with is a bit strange. They also promote it a ton, they had a huge booth at the last Home & Garden show with computers where people could search for homes using recolorado. I'm sure it generates a lot of revenue via the ads that they display. Why compete with your members for web traffic? And if they are going to have a website, they should have to follow the same rules that all of their IDX vendors have to follow.
This is personal choice really. I break it down like this:
If you are a Mac user, you'll mostly likely love the iPad.
If you a PC user, you'll most likely love the iPad.
Why? because it's simple. Intuitive. And it's a machine people associate with innovation. Since we are what we eat, we are also what we use. I think using an iPad kind of brands you with the things Apple is often associated with. I think that's a good thing.
Only this is - make sure you can search you MLS on Safari. If you can't, you'll have to figure out how to get a different browser on it so you can view it.
