Reactions have been mixed. Now, they&#8217;ve made some additional updates. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As we&#8217;ve rolled out our new look, we&#8217;ve heard from our community about things they love, things they miss, and things that could make Pinterest even better,&#8221; a spokesperson for the company tells WebProNews. &#8220;Thanks to the feedback, we&#8217;ve made some changes. The most significant changes are a new notifications system that keeps you up on all of the activity around your account, as well a typeahead to offer suggestions while you search.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After you pin something, you can check out related boards or go straight to your pin by clicking &#8220;See it Now&#8221;. <\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.ientry.com\/sites\/webpronews\/article_pics\/see-it-now.jpg\" alt=\"See it Now\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>For those who missed the &#8220;via&#8221; feature, Pinterest has added a way to see who things were pinned from when you click on a pin. <\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.ientry.com\/sites\/webpronews\/article_pics\/repinned-from.jpg\" alt=\"Repinned from\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>You can also now mention friends in pin descriptions and comments using an &#8220;@&#8221; before their name. <\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;Find Friends&#8221; feature lets you see which of your Facebook and Twitter friends are on Pinterest. <\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.ientry.com\/sites\/webpronews\/article_pics\/pinterest-find-friends.jpg\" alt=\"Find Friends\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Pinterest has added more notifications, with &#8220;Recent Activity&#8221; located in the upper right hand corner, and notifications for when someone follows you or your boards; repins, likes or comments on pins, and mentions. Old notifications will also be there for future reference. <\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also an improved search functionality, with search suggestions as you type. <\/p>\n<p>Soon, Pinterest says it will start letting you know when new pins have been added to your home feed. They&#8217;re also thinking about adding the ability to rearrange your pins, search for your pins, and to create a board within a board. These would likely be welcome features. <\/p>\n<p>Also in the cards is the ability to know when you&#8217;ve already pinned something to prevent duplicates. <\/p>\n<p>They&#8217;re still rolling out the new design. <\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=xjpEnOirTX8:ibD8vuBFc4Y:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=xjpEnOirTX8:ibD8vuBFc4Y:wF9xT3WuBAs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=xjpEnOirTX8:ibD8vuBFc4Y:wF9xT3WuBAs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=xjpEnOirTX8:ibD8vuBFc4Y:7Q72WNTAKBA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=7Q72WNTAKBA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=xjpEnOirTX8:ibD8vuBFc4Y:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=xjpEnOirTX8:ibD8vuBFc4Y:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=xjpEnOirTX8:ibD8vuBFc4Y:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=xjpEnOirTX8:ibD8vuBFc4Y:mfZ73u_VV2s\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=xjpEnOirTX8:ibD8vuBFc4Y:mfZ73u_VV2s\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/webpronews\/all\/~4\/xjpEnOirTX8\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In early January, Pinterest began testing its new look, which started rolling out to everyone in mid-March.
