Is Mulu The New Pinterest?

 Mulu.me is  site that I recently discovered through Twitter. It operates similarly to Pinterest ; except that when another user buys a product that you pin, the proceeds go to the charity of your choice.  I chose St. Jude's Hospital for my charity, but there are several others available. You can sign up for the website in a longer form or you can connect with Facebook. I hope you give mulu a try. If you want to add the Mulu bookmarklet, check out this page. You can follow me on Mulu here .
