Did You Know?: Embedding a Pinterest Pin in a Post

If you're like a goodly number of people on the Internet, you probably enjoy pinning items over at Pinterest. What if you have a Pin that you really want to share with your TypePad readers?  Luckily, it's easy to share a Pin on your blog!

First, go to your Pin on Pinterest. You should see a list of sharing options on the right including the option to Tweet it or Like it on Facebook.  If you click the Embed option, you'll see a pop-up like this:

If necessary, you can make any adjustments to the size of the window so that it fits your blog's content column.

Once you've copied the code, click the HTML tab on the Compose page and paste the code into the editor.  The image, linking back to the Pin on Pinterest, will now be in your post.

If you're on Pinterest, be sure to follow the TypePad Team's boards!
