Blogs For Tracking, Pinterest, Cheese

A lot of people use blogs to capture important information/details in their lives or just to keep track of their activities. Blogs are good for this. However, in my opinion, blogs are not the best option for some types of tracking. An example is the tracking of boards/categories created in my main Pinterest profile Pinterest.com/fahmeenaodetta. I tracked creation of the boards in a Google Docs document (shared document that has a single contributor). The document includes a list of the boards and shows screenshots with other important details on the boards. The document can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1av9nWkA5cpqrZQlGs8-zGj05Ulz18mMNVt-EmN_7tpU/edit

On my Pinterest profile…..

I enjoyed creating that profile. I gave the boards creative titles. It involved research. Some of the board titles are complex. An example is the ‘Say Cheese’ board. ‘Say Cheese’ is usually associated with taking photographs. My Pinterest board includes information on cheeses. I have an interesting cheese history/background.

I recall all sort of things related to cheese. Fromage is French for cheese. In my high school French class, we learned a song about wine and cheese: “Le vin de ma tante est sur la table de mon oncle, Le fromage de mon oncle est sur la table de ma tante…” The teacher required us to prepare a new verse to go along with the song.

And like links in a chain, I recall that my high school French teacher organized a run to the David Rose School for handicapped children (for a good cause).
