Pinterest board is where you place your pins (equivalent of pages in facebook). Yes, you create the board while you are at pinterest.com. First register with pinterest.
It's more visual than facebook or twitter, so it can be great for showcasing products, etc. with pretty pictures. It's also gaining popularity so might be a good thing to start edging in on. Nothing wrong with expanding your social network!
The Pinterest is like your own pages of related photos all in one place. it is also a powerful tool for bloggers and website owners to present the posts and their sites within an entirely new data format. You'll do well to manufacture a Pinterest Board or two and put it to use to showcase your blog posts or website content. For more info : http://about.pinterest.com/basics/
Register (you can sign in using your Facebook account) and in the top right cornet of the page, click the "+" button - from the drop down, choose "Create a new board" - you can make your board public (available for other users to see its content) or you can choose to make it private. If you're using Pinterest for your business, make sure you make your boards public, so that other users see your photos. Use it to promote your "visual" content - infographics, designs, photos and so on. Hope you got the idea. Good luck!
