What major pivot did Pinterest make in terms of the way it positioned itself? Why do you think Pinterest did this?

What are some challenges and/or controversies that Pinterest has had to deal with?

What are your thoughts about Pinterest? If you have used it, what did you use it for, and how effective did you find Pinterest to be? If you haven’t used it, go the site and poke around a bit — what do you think you could use it for? (If you don’t think Pinterest could be useful to you, that’s completely fine — but be sure to explain why).

You may consult outside sources to help inform your understanding of the general themes/ideas, but you do not need to. No citations are needed, either. Most of your time and energy should be devoted to the third question. The facilitators and I are looking to see case write-ups that demonstrate effort and originality — not some particular “right” answer to the questions.
