Pinterest Is Now the Third Most Popular Social Network in the U.S.

The newest site to rival Facebook and Twitter doesn’t resemble either one. According to Experian’s “2012 Digital Marketer: Benchmark and Trend Report,” Pinterest is now the third most popular social network in the U.S. behind Facebook and Twitter.

The image bookmarking site has grown exponentially since the site launched in March 2010. There were 21.5 million total visits to the site during the week ending January 28, 2012, which is nearly 30 times the number of total visits that Pinterest had received six months earlier.
