Accessibility of Innovation Leading to Increased Opportunity...
You can't use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.- Maya Angelou
Lately the ability to become innovative seems to be tied to the ever increasing accessibility of creative based programs all of which coming at a time as this Internet based Renaissance begins to hit a peak.
No longer do we have to spend hundreds to buy a decent image editing program, no longer do we need to spend thousands on web site design, no longer do we even need to spend hundreds on office suite programs. All are readily available and fully functional without any cost with one quick search and download, all one needs is an internet access. I could list several tested and tried programs here (like GIMP & Open Office) , but this isn't the point of this post.
The very reason we are in this 21st century information based Renaissance is directly related to this increased accessibility of programs. Through increased accessibility, comes a rise in innovation, creativity and an overall freeing of the mind, especially in how one approaches fundamental infrastructures of internet based companies. Now is the time to not only search for affordable options in terms of programming but also to search for that individual who has suddenly found a personal Renaissance of their own.
Once what was a small pond of rare select individuals now has become an ocean teaming with opportunity. Granted truly special creative individuals are still a rare commodity, but now we all have the ability through this increased accessibility, to practice creativity and as Maya Angelou states, the more one uses their creative side, the more creative they become.
To those who are looking for assistance with their businesses, you are in luck, now is the time to find that truly creative individual (especially with increased practical experience now beginning to supersede college degrees). To those looking for new ventures or just to shine a light on new found skills , you are in luck, as now is the time to learn, gain experience and grow through this increased accessibility, which ultimately will lead to an increased opportunity.
Success is where preparation and opportunity meet. - Bobby Unser
