One of the biggest talks lately has been Pinterest. It has been talked about recently over and over again, why? It's the fastest growing social community site in history. The addiction to Pinterest is just overwhelming. It's easy to use and it's more friendly than using Tumblr. Some of the late gamers jumping on now are businesses. What they don't realize is that it caters towards online stores! Really easy and intuitive. It's also a bonus for SEO which is why some of the key players in the marketing industry have utilized this powerful growing social site before it's too late.

Everyday ModSession searches for the next popular social media site, yes...this is it everyone. It can't really get any easier than this for now. I'm sure it will only continue to improve as Pinterest tries to keep up with the popular demand.

Currently, the only way to join Pinterest is to be on a waiting list. Typically, it takes about 1-2 weeks to get accepted from what I remember. However, once accepted, you will be able to send invites to other friends so they don't have to painfully wait to get their Pin-the-board fix.

For businesses, learn to accomplish the best SEO on Pinterest as well as your general interaction with your other social media networks. Treat Pinterest the same as you would with Twitter, Facebook, G+ or Tumblr and you will gain the followers you need in no time.

So everyday I talk about Google+ and how it's great, the next big social networking site, taking over the world...

The responses I get from people? "FAIL."

Ok, sure I hear them, and I'll even let it slide that for regular end users who have tried or heard about Google+ will believe that it's another failed product. Facebook was able to create a community by bringing in end users such as yourself by first originating a small niche through college students. Eventually it evolved by establishing a network of friends, family, business people to connect with each other, this is how a typical social networking site usually works you could say. Now, Google+ the way I see it, the hype will work backwards....what do I mean by that? Because Google is dubbed the king of search engines, businesses will be the ones who will create the network for the end users. This is such a great opportunity for businesses to jump on the bandwagon and create a Google+ Page. I don't mean a profile, I'm referring to an actual page (much like Facebook's fan page).  The first advantage and probably the biggest right now is that Google+ can be found on search results. I personally experimented a few pages myself and the results are there. I don't want to bore too much about this article explaining in specific details so I'll just list out why it will help.
