Blame Google's algorithm for putting it in front of the wrong audiences. Or perhaps, blame Pinterest for SEO-engineering that outcome? I'm not sure.

I have visited Pinterest over a hundred different times and I have never once left satisfied. I find it on Google searches, and it's always like stumbling into a crazy person's attic. There's something related to my search, with no context, in the middle of a dozens of completely unrelated things. No links. No information. No sources. Why does this even exist? Who knows!

It makes no sense to me that these pages are public, let alone indexed. It seems like it should work more like email or evite or something: either personal or shared to a small number of people.
