I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how I collect my visual inspiration from across the web. I’ve been looking for a one-stop shop where I can save images, music, art and videos that peak my interest. Pinterest is looking like ‘the one’. I’ve been using Pinterest for a while now, but have decided to forgo all other tools and use it exclusively as my visual pinboard. For non-visual content, I still use Instapaper until I decide if I want to keep it or not.
I’ve also just started using Trello to manage my creative projects. A great project management tool for visual folks like myself. I’ll take something that I’ve pinned on Pinterest and move it to Trello when I’m ready to take the inspiration a bit further and start an actual project around it.
Each entry on Trello is a ‘card’ which when you click, takes you to the back where you can enter more info, add images, videos, checklists etc …
Super easy to use, and key for me is that it has an iPhone app and the website works on the iPad too.
