Thing #7: Content Saving & Sharing

I signed up for Pinterest quite a while ago, but, like Twitter, I have not yet found a practical application for it in my daily life. I already save content in too many places - Google Drive, Evernote, Pocket, Dropbox, and now Springpad. Publicly broadcasting my likes and personal interests via pinning seems too open-ended. Although I am an info addict, I am not inclined to share everything I find with either friends or strangers.

I've also never used Bitly before, and for the most part haven't felt a need. Even in the professional sphere I prefer to keep full URLs where possible. Signing up for it seems like just another place to leave a trail.
