they say that creativity peaks at 23 and it goes downhill from there. if that’s the case, you may just have saved my sense of creativity, if there ever was, by posting such an entry. I just turned 24 last month. tough luck eh?!
One is never too old to get new ideas going. Steve Job is like the iGod and he’s just getting started. I wonder what’s the next iProduct he has in store for us =D.
depends on what you are creating. some time just an afternoon of windowshopping brings lots of new ideas
I have never really gotten into animes. I will have to explore that idea further.

Great post ! Stumbled !
Jamy
Biz- that could also work. I need to explore it to find out!
Debo- animes are great ideas generator =D.
Jamy- Thank you!
I find that taking walks, drawing, and writing (constantly) help boost my creativity. Watching TV and playing video games tends to dull my ideas. To each his/her own!
