[via craigslist] Know Your Own Bone – Nonprofit Marketing & Online Engagement. Wired.com. Fri, 04/27/2012. Fri, 04/27/2012. How Do You Document Your Creative Process? Recently, my colleagues have gone wild for Pinterest.

Pinterest is an online sharing tool that allows you to construct virtual bulletin boards to collect and display images from across the web. While some museums are using the tool in clever public-facing ways, that's not what's happening here at the MAH. At our museum, our programs team is using Pinterest to develop ideas for upcoming community events. As staff members and interns discover intriguing activities, products, or artwork on the web, individuals can "pin" items of interest to the boards for specific events (i.e. Fire Festival) or program types (Family Programs). This is particularly effective for us since interns and volunteers are significant contributors to our programmatic team and everyone is on different schedules. We're not using Pinterest to do something cool on the Web. And that central place happens to be public. I'm curious how other organizations are publicly documenting and sharing creative process.
