Pinterests hype bubble has burst

I always dislike how quickly everybody is to rave about the next big thing one day and then bash it the next.

They still have 8 million users and it I'm sure they aren't done innovating. I have no idea what they are going to do with the site, and I don't use it, but I'd say they are in a very good position for growth. This may be the beginning for them, not the end.

Does anybody know if twitter had a similar period in it's early stages?
