Keeping up with Pinterest

From repins to likes to comments, keeping up with everything that happens on Pinterest can be a bit of a challenge. However, the site offers several tools to help you stay on top of the latest Pinterest activity.

  • Whenever you log in to Pinterest, you will see the Recent Activity box in the top-left corner of the homepage. This lets you know whenever someone starts following, repins, likes, or comments on your pinboards.
