(#TechTalkThursday) If you have shared Pinterest Pins on Twitter and Facebook
using Pinterest’s cross-posting feature, you know the output is not ideal. Facebook
only shows a thumbnail and Twitter displays just text and a link (see examples of
both images below). If you are looking to make a bigger impact with your pins
across social media, keep on reading.
According to Mary Potter, Professor of Psychology, Department of Brain and
Cognitive Sciences at MIT, it only takes 13 milliseconds for the brain to understand
and process an image. How fast is 13 milliseconds? Turn on a light switch. Your
brain processes an image 3 milliseconds faster than it takes the electricity to turn
on the light bulb.

2. Do images make an impact in social media?
62% of internet users have shared or curated a photo or video.
Visuals positively affect participation (reading, clicks, shares, purchases) by
80%.
Research done by New York University suggests that 83% of learning
occurs visually.
