Have you heard about the new invite-only Pinterest app?

Stick around for the Social Media News to Use below including the Pinterest app details.

When are you in your element? In the pocket? In the zone? Your flow state?

A few of mine:

• reading
• running
• driving in the car by myself with my favorite music loud
• eating the most decadent chocolate cake or delicious chocolate chip cookie
• teaching something about social media to anyone (a stranger, a friend, a client)

Let me know what yours is and find time to do more of that, okay?!
