Pinterest Beta (free) - Earlier this week, we were treated to the debut of the official Pinterest app for Windows Phone. But don't get too excited, the app is just a mobile web wrapper and offers only a few unique experiences. This fact is reflected in the app's ratings, where many disappointed users left comments like "lazy" and "I waiting for long time a Pinterest official app but I feel a quite disappointed with this version. It's not different [than] a mobile site version."
For those that did not know, Pinterest is a tool to help you discover and plan things you want to do. When you find something that looks interesting, just Pin it! Pins are visual bookmarks that you organize and share the way you want.
