5 Etiquette Tips For Pinterest

Whether you're there for fun or for your company, it's a good idea to the following things in mind while pinning.

 

 

 

  • Never abuse: Pinterest is about sharing inspiration and creativity, so keep comments positive. If you don't like something, simply refrain from repinning or liking it, or stop following the board or pinner who shared it. Instead, stick with what you do like about a pin, "Love the use of color!"
  • Give due credit: Give credit where creditop is due, be it an author, company, designer, photographer or anyone else involved an image's creation. If a site has a "pin it" button it's a clear sign they welcome you to use their images; even so, add crediting information, especially any that the site pre-feeds into the pin description. If a site has blocked visitors from pinning its images, respect that decision and refrain, even if you see a way to obtain the image another way.
  • Verify original link: When pinning, take the time to click through to verify the original link. Regrettably, some pinners will misdirect users for their own purposes. If a pin links to an unrelated site, skip the pin and scroll on.
  • Add description: Add a comment or description to your pin so that others will be able to search for it (take a moment to proofread, too!) Pinterest is about sharing not just what inspires you, but why you're inspired by it. Though tempting to share full instructions for a recipe or DIY project you're excited about in your comment, write a short description instead, and let others who are interested find out the details through the link. Never copy and paste entire posts or articles from someone's blog or site to share as your description.
  • Don't chase search engines: Don't pin from search engine results; pins from general image searches don't allow other pinners to find out the link or page from which the image came. If you find an image through a Google Image search for example, click through to the link and pin from there, including any source information you find. Pins from other image sharing sites like Tumblr can be tricky to source what with so many people reblogging from each other. Keep clicking back through the posts to find the original post.

Times Newspaper in Education (Times NIE) is a novel program that helps students ‘Stay Ahead’ and aims at making ‘Learning Fun’. It introduces concepts that help individual growth and development beyond school curriculum.

A brainchild of The Times of India, the world’s leading English newspapers, Times NIE nurtures progress and innovation. Adapted from the international concept, Times Newspaper in Education program (Times NIE) was initiated in India in 1985.

Today we have over 3000 schools and over 9 lac students subscribing to the programme, spanning 16 cities viz. Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Kolkata, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Kochi, Lucknow, Coimbatore, Chandigarh, Dehradun, Vijayawada, Visakhapatnam, and Jaipur.

The Times of India Student edition, a customized student newspaper exclusively for the students, packs a powerful punch in terms of content that leads to a smarter and superior learning experience. The information is crafted such that it finds use in classroom discussions, thus making it relevant and current. It truly gives education a new dimension by fostering the simple habit of reading which in turn paves the way for a confident, informed and aware individual. A newspaper that inspires young minds and equips them to face challenges of today’s world, making way for global citizens.

Empowering students with new cutting-edge knowledge through various educative and informative activities is a commitment and tradition of Times NIE. The programme serves as a catalyst of education and interaction, as well as a window into the minds of the quintessential Indian youth. On a significant scale Times NIE comprises diverse interesting activities and events that boost the child’s passion for learning, while revealing hidden talent.

While you are aware that The Times of India is among the leading English Newspapers across the world, it has consummated its position as an everlasting winner. With several international awards and recognitions to its credit, The Times of India and Times NIE have validated an enduring tradition of setting the highest benchmarks in every respect. We have been awarded with the two most prestigious awards, Times NIE - World’s No.1 NIE program and The Times of India, Student Edition - World’s No.1 Newspaper for the youth in 2006 by the celebrated World Association of Newspapers (WAN). In 2008 we were honoured by the International Newspaper Marketing Association (INMA), yet another international recognition for ‘Youth Audience Development’. In 2013 we were again honoured by the celebrated World Association of Newspapers (WAN) as the ‘Times NIE - World’s Best Youth Engagement Program’.

Times NIE has grown remarkably over the last three and a half decades, touching millions of children across more than 16 Indian cities. Our absolute commitment towards the fledgling generation remains undiluted and our greatest strength lies in the school partnership and commitment.
