Everybody is so busy talking about 'Twittering' and talking about the new technologies and talking about this and that, but they don't talk about creativity.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Twitter has already birthed an entire ecosystem of other sites that extend its power or interact with it. But Twitter isn't just a platform for technological innovation: It's showing signs as an engine of creativity for the language, too.
I think that a lot of people just don't understand creativity.
There are some people whose Twitter feeds are works of art. They intuitively understand how much of themselves to put out there.
When people come to Twitter and they want to express something in the world, the technology fades away. It's them writing a simple message and them knowing that people are going to see it.
Creativity is down the tube. And people give a lot of lip service to individuality. I know they all appreciate it, but they all say they would like to do it, but they don't want to work at it, and it doesn't come out of the sky.
Creative people are notoriously the slowest to adopt new technology.
Creativity is merely a plus name for regular activity. Any activity becomes creative when the doer cares about doing it right, or better.
People simply learn to process information to the point where it doesn't serve true creativity.
One of the things about being on Twitter, for me, is mostly about just being on the pulse of what people are interested in, what people are doing and what people are looking for. I look at entertainment projects and storytelling, and I really try to think about what people want.
The nature of creativity is to make space for things to happen... We can drive it out with our busyness and plans.
