repinning

Attaching with pins

Repinning is sharing content on Pinterest by saving someone else's pin to your own board.

The platform's primary social action, repinning spreads images and links through the network: I spent an hour repinning recipes for Thanksgiving.

Outside Pinterest, repinning means to pin something again—reattaching a badge, refastening fabric, or replacing a mechanical pin.
