7 Best Alternatives To Pinterest

Bo.It

I am not sure what Bo.It means, but I do consider it as a great Pinterest alternative. Its design is very much similar to that of Pinterest. One of its interesting features is that once you Bo it, it would save the page on the company’s servers. So, you will be able to view the page even if the owner removes it from his board.

Chill

Chill is a web service which runs on the similar concept that Pinterest does, but instead of images, Chill handles videos. So you can share videos in stead of images. If you are thinking that it is similar to YouTube, then I would say its not. The fact that it involves the “sharing” element is big enough to ensure that it is way different that

Curisma

If you are a geek, a tech savy person or a person who is inclined towards technology, then you have to check out Curisma. This social photo sharing service looks like a Pinterest version meant for technology and gadget lovers. Here you can read and learn about latest gadgets in the market and find great deals, if you are interested in buying them.

GentleMint

Lets face the fact, the bigger part of the Pinterest user base comprises of women. And I am sure that most of the men using Pinterest have issues finding interesting stuff. Here is the men version of Pinterest which offers stuff that a man would be interested in checking out.

Image Spark

Like most of the listed Pinterest alternatives, Image Spark is also different from others in its own way. Unlike other services, with Image Spark you can arrange images the way you want. And if you wish, you can either make them Public or Private.

Juxtapost

This is a very good Pinterest alternative using which you can share videos and pictures on it. Just like Pinterest you have full control over your sharing boards. You can keep them totally private if you want. In order to help you keep stuff in organized manner, it also lets you use labels of different colors.

We Heart It

On a first glimpse, you might find it too girly with Pink color and heart shaped designs every where. But if that does not affect you, then its worth using We Heart It. With more than 10 million images already shared on this service, it can surely be labelled as one the most popular image sharing services on Internet.
