Most people only consider LinkedIn to be the professional social media outlet, however I find it very interesting that Pinterest and blogs, are also used professionally. I for one, have a Pinterest account, and am consistently looking at fashion blogs and recipes. It is a great way to promote oneself and prove that you have the capabilities to be a fabulous chef or stylist, to name a few.
