We&#8217;ve shown you how to make an app from a WordPress blog and how to make one from a Blogger blog. We discussed Posterous. What if you want an app that carries your ideas but isn&#8217;t a blog?<\/p>\n<p>You may have seen friends using <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pinterest<\/a> on Facebook. Pinterest is a tool that lets you save any idea that you see. For example, if you see a recipe, you can pin it to your Pinterest board. If you see a craft project you&#8217;d like to do, you can pin it. It&#8217;s a way to keep track of all the things you&#8217;d like to do later and share it with your friends at the same time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What kind of apps can I make from Pinterest?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pinterest is an easy way to make an app that showcases recipes. You can make a cookbook that uses recipes from all over the internet, giving proper credit to the recipe writers, but still compiling them for your app users.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, you can create a craft idea showcase, giving people ideas for crafts that they can create.<\/p>\n<p>Pinterest is also an easy way to create a virtual bookshelf, filled with your reading recommendations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why turn these things into an app?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Imagine you&#8217;re baking. Would you want to have to go to your computer to find out recipes? It&#8217;s much easier to check the app in your Android phone.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, if you&#8217;re buying supplies for an art project, it&#8217;s much easier to have an app in the store with you to tell you exactly what to buy.<\/p>\n<p>Even if you&#8217;re planning on buying books in a bookstore, it&#8217;s nice to have recommendations posted in an easy-to access app.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pinterest is invite-only. How do I get a Pinterest invite?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Write to me at <a href=\"mailto:Leah@appsgeyser.com\">Leah@appsgeyser.com<\/a>, and I&#8217;ll hook you up.<\/p>\n<p>Feel free to\u00a0download my Pinterest app on AppsGeyser.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;ve talked a lot about blog apps.
