Exclusive: If you're new to Startup Grind you'll find that sometimes I write about really important and critical things to help you with your startup. Sometimes we'll profile great startups, or write about breaking news. And sometimes we post stuff that is weird, cool, or funny. This post falls into the last category.

There is an extremely creative and talented Dutchman named Jo Luijten who is creating some of the coolest and most cleaver tech satire I have seen this year. He has amassed 3MM viral views in in the past few months and I'm excited to partner with him on his latest video project, If Pinterest had been invented in the '90s. Check out the hilarious video below and please share it on Pinterest! We're trying to help him get a partner account on YouTube. Message him on Twitter or in the comments if you have a connection on the inside that can help his new business.
