How do you feel when random people start following you?

I have numerous random people (people not from thebump) following me and I'm not sure how I should feel about it. :P

I don't mind. There's not really any info they can get from me. I am following a few people I don't know just because they have similar styles & tastes.

I no longer have my real name on there, so I'm just flattered!

Yea, this is why I limited my personal info on there and don't let it link to my FB. Since I have it set up like that, I just look at it as flattering too :-) Although it does make me want to figure out if they are bumpies or not.

I still haven't jumped on this wagon yet. Can any of you tell me what it is?

It's like a picture viewing site for all your bookmarks. So, instead of looking at the title of the page you want to bookmark, you will see a picture from the page. And you can see others pins and share pins and stuff.

I can send you an invite if you give me your email.

It basically lets you bookmark different things on the web, lets you assign a image to it (generally an image from the site) and give a few details in it. Then it separates your different 'pins' into boards. I have a recipe board, a sewing board, a board that is for kids' crafts & activities, etc. It's great - I used to e-mail myself these links and never remember them, or forget exactly what it was I e-mailed. Now, I have them all in one place, and I have images to remind me what the heck I was so excited about. Plus, you get to follow different people (EFFers) who are pinning things that are spectacular and you can 'repin' those items onto your boards (I stalk CABunny religiously for great kids ideas!).

I am pretty private but okay with it because I am not really putting a lot out there. But that could change at any moment and I could end up on one of my random privacy rampages and start deleting people :-)

sounds fun! Can you email it to me? My email is first name _ (underscore mark) last name at yahoo. You have my name on FB, right? Thanks!

I don't know that you can... Right now it's all just out there, from what I understand. Which sucks just a tiny bit, as I really want to keep a 'gift ideas' board, but can only really put stuff for DH, not friends, as I figure eventually my friends will find it.

I actually don't like having my IRL friends on there for this exact reason.

I know I follow a few EFFers and a few follow me. I might be one of the people you don't know. My name on there is Kelly R.
