Pinterest announces open registration

Summary

Pinterest has officially opened its registration process, allowing anyone to sign up using an email address, Facebook, or Twitter account, eliminating the previous invitation requirement. This strategic shift comes after two years of significant growth, with the platform reporting over 100 million monthly visits and its referral traffic exceeding that of Twitter, Google, and Bing. The decision aims to further expand its user base, which third-party analyses estimate to be around 20 million, capitalizing on its proven ability to drive substantial content discovery.
