If you’re into social media you’re probably already heard about the new platform called ‘Pinterest’. ‘Pinterest lets you organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web’. But there’s a proviso …and it’s called copyright.

Last week a friend asked me who were the most interesting people in Australian art to follow on twitter. While attempting to make a list from those I’m following, I realised Peerindex could do all the work for me. It also ranks tweeters according to their social ‘influence’.
I’ve now made my Top 200+ ‘Australia: Visual Arts’ peerindex list public so anyone can view it.
If I’ve missed you let me know (@followolff) and I’ll add you to the group.
