Big data of Pinterest

Pinterest created a partnership with Getty images to understand how user behavior when pinning images. It sounds like Pinterest is trying to find a revenue source in its current business structure. by identifying where users go to find pictures, where and how they select them will help the company determine potential opportunities for selling user data. It would be curious to see what leads will come out of the partnership and what it implies for the big data collection and analyses.
