Creativity Contract- Other Creativity Tools

Now, more than ever, there are so many different ways in which creativity can be inspired. Many of these inspirations are provided by the readily available creativity web tools that everyone can access. Each of these tools are unique in their own way, and can appeal to a variety of individuals. While completing this part of my project, I felt as if I wasn't doing an assignment, because I use these tools on an everyday basis.

Pinterest-

Personally, Pinterest is my favorite creativity tool to use. Since creating my Pinterest account, I have found myself doing and creating things that I was completely unaware of before. Pinterest is an online “pin-board”, in which members create theme based “boards” to collect and share images of interest to them. Users can follow friends or other individual's boards, and “re-pin” their images as well. Through this “Pinning” interaction, creativity is continuously flowing and inspiring individuals in all aspects of life. The categories to explore seem endless, and include options such as, Home décor, Women's/Men's Fashion, Food and Drink, Health and Fitness, DIY, Wedding Planning, Holidays, and much much more! Pinterest is also a very helpful tool because it not only inspires creativity, but it allows you to keep up with topics of interest, so that you can recall and reuse them at any given moment. For me, the only down fall with Pinterest is that I tend to spend too much time exploring, when I should be doing homework. Overall, Pinterst is a very helpful tool can can be used by anyone. The amount of creativity it inspires and the opportunities it can create for individuals is never ending!

Google Sites-

Google sites, was created by google as a web-page creation tool. This creativity tool allows individuals to create sites, in which multiple people can engage and manage collectively. Personally, I have grown to love Google Sites. Because of Google Sites, men and women can now create pages more easily, as it is free and very user friendly. The only start-up obstacle is simply creating a google account, which can be done in less than five minutes. Google sites can be used as an Educational, personal, or professional tool. Teachers can use this tool to inspire and engage more students at a time, as it enables everyone to access and make changes to the site, while also working together. Individuals can use Google Sites as a personal blogger, and express their thoughts, experiences, and creations for no cost. There are numerous ways to personalize your site through the many templates, themes, images, page, and text options available. Google sites is the perfect way to both inspire, and become inspired by creativity, and I encourage everyone to try it out!
