Quite pinteresting. Google maybe missing a trick here - I actually already use google image search a lot because quite often I can't describe what I mean in specific words (ie I'm looking for a 'thing' but don't know what it's called) so I turn to google images. Because I can roughly describe the thing and in the image search the exact thing shows up and tells me its name.

30 billion pins, or 30 billion different pins?
