Pinterest launches notes, dates and recommendations on boards

Pinterest today introduced notes, and recommendations on boards. Users can now add notes within boards to list out ingredients or tasks for a project, they can add dates to boards to keep tabs on projects and receive timely recommendations. Pinterest also introduced new automatic grouping of Pins into sections to organize ideas into themes, and new suggested board section templates.

Boards are used by users to save ideas. Pinterest says that on the last month there was a 60% increase in the number of boards created, compared to the same time a year ago, while engagement with boards is up nearly 75% year-over-year and, nearly 50% month over month globally.

Pinterest says the board features are rolling out globally starting today on web, iOS and Android.
