“Pinyadda has become one of the go to sites that I will go to each and every time I get to a computer. It allows me to pick topics and sites that I enjoy and all the articles are right there ready for me to click through.”

Ryan Shores first learned about Pinyadda when he saw a link that one of his Facebook friends had Pinned to their wall a couple months back. He was curious, joined Pinyadda and, well, the rest is history! He’s now a top user, and we’re thrilled to have him in the community.

“When I first started to use Pinyadda I thought it would be another outlet for me to check news on. Now I see it as a game-changer.”

Kristin Maguire is sharp. Part schooled mathematician, part analyst, part current event fiend – this gal is on top of the news. She’s one of Pinyadda’s newest power users, and you need to follow her Pinned articles. Kristin is an analyst in Fidelity Investments’ business intelligence unit. That means she works with lots of numbers and metrics. On Pinyadda you’d never guess this, though. Her Pinned articles are across a variety of topics. I actually thought she worked in healthcare, as she joined the week of reform and was Pinning articles about it, sharing her perspectives, and posing some great questions.

On HOW Kristin uses Pinyadda: “It really did change how I read the news.”

We thought we’d shake up this week’s no user left behind by doing it over video, with one of our power users Kelly. Kelly is working to get her law degree and she has been using the product since January, providing us with invaluable feedback and daily use since. Kelly has also invited a bunch of her friends to Pinyadda, and she describes this as having a lot to do with her favorite feature: the ability to Pin articles directly to her friends on the site and have a discussion about the article (more below).

Here’s some cuts from the video with Kelly:
