You are not wrong Promod, rather spot on.

I agree completely.

Many of these categories of people don’t necessarily have huge audiences – at least initially.

I like what you say about courage. That’s something I didn’t include in my post – people who are willing to be outspoken are often fascinating (although also sometimes infuriating!).

Not everyone requires 10,000 or 100,000 Followers to be successful. What we need most, is the courage to say things that stay on the permanent public record. That’s the magnet that (eventually) attracts an audience. With time and ongoing practice, we find our niche and develop a style. That’s when the magic happens. There’s a joy in watching skilled performers who love what they do.

PS I could be wrong

Comment on Is social media displacing creativity? by Matthew Dubins

Drawing, painting and making music sound like very artsy outlets for creativity. You could creatively create code to solve a problem in a way you would have never thought possible before. You could fix a leak in your home using totally untraditional but effective methods. When you have the drive/intelligence for creativity in you, it finds a way to express itself.

I’ll put together a post. Don’t really have the time to exploit any more good ideas. Hopefully somebody else will be able to use ‘em. Assuming they’re actually good.

Interesting. Plus c’est change, plus c’est le meme chose.

We need to be developing the social web infrastructure to allow for more creative collaboration (as opposed to more collaborative sharing of content).

I just had some ideas along these lines, resulting from your comment. Thanks!

Voltaire was quoted saying ”the multitude of books is making us ignorant.” In that same vein the enormity of information does not make us more intelligent. That being said society can not advance without some calculus; contrasting and complimentary ideas, feelings, and people. When someone explores personnel creativity; many draw from society and oneself in relation to. It is of little benefit to the creative process to follow a path of imitation but ignore any process would be defeating; no matter how unsatisfying. We learn in a variety of arenas, to limit ones avail to that which we deem quality creativity is to deny ourselves and society the gem of dissatisfaction.
