Sans titre | Flickr - Partage de photos ! Study: The Most Popular Brand Boards on Pinterest Although the vast majority of brand engagement on Pinterest is user-generated, many branded accounts have achieved an impressive reach of their own. Social media-benchmarking company Unmetric took a look at 5,000 branded Pinterest boards in mid-March to assess which boards generated the most engagement in terms of followers, comments, likes and repins. Unsurprisingly, the most popular branded boards tend to fall in categories that are already popular among Pinterest's predominantly female userbase — namely food, fashion, home and weddings. The standout brand in the study is Better Homes and Gardens, whose "Blogger Faves From BHG.com" — a group board managed by 10 guest pinners — merited the second most repins, the third most likes and the fourth greatest number of comments among branded boards. Giveaway contests are one way to get a lot of comments on a branded board. Here's a breakdown of the most popular branded boards: Most Popular Boards by Followers1. Top image courtesy of Pinterest.
May 2011 For Nuit Blanche, finding the ideal site is almost as important as the concept of the installation itself. After debating numerous times on the typology of site we were hoping for (jumping between alley ways, open courtyards, sheltered spaces) we found a small parking lot that provides us with qualities from all these types of spaces. Located just off Yonge Street, the site is a small back service area to several apartment and commercial buildings on Temperance Street, directly beside Toronto's "Cloud Gardens". The site provides many opportunities to create flow as well as areas where people can stay and loiter. The layout and plan for the site is still undecided, but it will allow us to shape our project further and design it specifically for our installation space.

Tra foto e acquerelli Aliza Razell è un'artista eclettica ed innovativa che ama le contaminazioni e lo dimostrano le sue opere originali che utilizzano acquerelli e autoritratti fotografici. La fusione delle due tecniche è possibile in Photoshop. La sua prima serie intitolata Anesidora, coinvolge la storia del Vaso di Pandora (Il vaso di Pandora era in realtà un barattolo , un dettaglio frainteso nel 1400), mentre il secondo si ispira alla parola finlandese"Ikävä" , cioè la sensazione di perdere qualcosa o qualcuno. Teniamola d'occhio!
