While we might assume that it lessens our creativity... less pencil and paper activity, with people relying increasingly on software to do such things for them... in many ways it seems almost to heighten people's creative input, giving them the tools to create in ways that they might not previously had the skills, or the confidence in their own abilities. With our own customers, we are finding that people are increasingly interested in having an input in the design process. I think all human beings are intrinsically creative. How wonderful that we now have the tools at our fingertips to make the joy of creativity accessible to all!! Happy MIY everyone! Technology has an interesting effect, doesn’t it?
