Using the “Senior Superlative” format from high school, this post shares some of the best social media and digital technology Pinterest boards for Social Media in Organizations (SMinOrgs). Categories include Most Original, Class Clown, and of course Most Popular. We also share related resources and invite everyone to “Come Pin with Us!”

===//===

It’s been a joy to watch the SMinOrgs Pinterest presence grow and blossom with pins. With Courtney’s innovation new boards are constantly being added, titles are being revamped and pins are popping up weekly. We love to see our pins being shared on your boards (and will happily follow back any social media or digital technology related board!). Here is a quick recap of some of the “best of the best,” using High School Superlative format. : )

Most Original – Digital Era Images (30+ pins)

This board is filled with pictures that display realities, oddities and irony.  All pins on this board are original photographs that capture digital technology & social media actualities in everyday life. The best part? It’s the easiest to contribute to. With the abundance of smart phones armed with cameras, anyone can snap a quick picture whenever something interesting, odd, or ironic captures their attention!

Most Potential – Stories We Love (6+ pins)

One of our latest boards is already showing huge promise.  Not only does this board provide a great picture captured as a pin, but it also links back to an interesting article or story.  The title says it all, only stories that we LOVE will get the honor of being pinned to this board.  Keep an eye out, as this board is sure to get even more popular!

Reigning Repins – IT Infographics (59+ pins)

What can we say? Apparently everyone wants these informative and beautifully illustrated pins that describe everything from statistics on the 2012 Olympics to what the average Tumblr user’s eating habits are like. While we equally love all our boards, this board sees the most repins by far. 

Class Clown – Technology Ticklers (32+ pins)

Who doesn’t love a good laugh?  The comics pinned here are funny, true, and generally depict the impact of social media and other digital technologies in a humorous and straight-to-the-point kind of way. With colorful images, quick jokes and a wide variety of topics, it’s no wonder this board is such a fan favorite. 

Most Popular Pin – The Cartoonist Group

While we see dozens of repins and likes on a weekly basis, there is one pin that has separated itself from the pack.  With 25 likes and 69 repins, this pin has blown the other ones out of the water. Maybe it’s the truthfulness or maybe it’s the funny facial expression of the phone in a museum-style portrait, but either way, this pin wins “Most Popular”, hands down.
