It’s been far too long since I last signed up for a new online social experience and recently my web prayers were answered. I finally received my requested invite to Pinwheel<\/a>, a new service that’s still in beta testing. Unfortunately only members can see other people’s posts.<\/p>\n

What is Pinwheel you ask? Jeez, what a silly question.\u00a0From their FAQ: “With Pinwheel, you can find and leave notes around the world.” “Pinwheel is made of notes. A note can be a story, advice, jokes, diatribes, information, memories, facts, advertisements, love letters, grocery lists and manifestoes. The content of a note is only limited by your imagination. A note can be shared with the world, one to many people, one to one, or only with yourself.”<\/p>\n

Here is my home screen and my first “note.” You can tell from the missing map of my location that it’s still having beta issues. Examples of a number of bugs I’ve already run into: quotations messing up tags, maps not showing and placement markers in wrong spots. I’m confident these will all be cleared up very soon, though.<\/p>\n

Here’s to hopefully leaving, finding, and favoriting many notes from around the globe!<\/p>\n
