Check out a little preview below of the badges and then jump in, start pinning and get yours!  Who knows, maybe you even have what it takes to be a “Maven” of wine on Pinyadda (yeah, baller)…

Updates, New Badges, and the Summer of Yadda

| June 2nd, 2010

Things are moving fast at Pinyadda HQ and we wanted to make sure to keep everyone in the loop about what we’ve been up to. Yaddapalooza was a huge success, with hundreds of people coming out to celebrate our progress and cheer for the future, and we’re super pumped to turn on the gas and really take Pinyadda to the next level. Here’s a quick rundown of the cool stuff we’ve shipped in the last few weeks:

The Newsstand

Our users needed a better way to find new people, sites, and topics to follow that allowed them to do three main things: find a known quantity (e.g. a person or site whose name they were sure of), find unknown quantities with a known criteria (e.g. sites that have content about cars), and browse content by category in a way that was intuitive and fun. We’re pretty happy with the way it came out and we’re eager to hear your feedback about how to make it even better.

Announcing the Boston BeIn Badges on Pinyadda – Support Boston Startups!

| May 19th, 2010

OK. The BeIn Initiative badges are admittedly our favorite campaign of all right now – we just had way too many laughs poking fun at Pinyadda‘s early stage experiences designing it.  Here’s the deal: by Pinning and sharing articles from the leading Boston tech and innovation blogs that cover area startups, you unlock different levels of startup stage badges – from Alpha to IPO – and you get all the hilarious startuper lifestyle jokes that come along with each.  (You know, like after a year of hard work, your Mom finally signs up…)

By Pinning articles from Mass High Tech, BostInnovation, and Scott Kirsner’s Innovation Economy in the Boston Globe you not only support and learn about Boston’s startup ecosystem, you get to boast some slick badges that let everyone know you’re part of the BeIn Initiative.  Have fun with this one, and do your part to BeIn the Boston startup renaissance by sharing news to your social networks about all the incredible companies that are killing it here.
