Creativity

In the article Twitter Serves Up Ideas From It's Followers, it shows a great example of how New Media fosters creativity.  It mentions that a lot of how Twitter is what it is now is because of the creativity of it's users, who invent creative ways to use the site to get it to do what they want for their needs.

Being creative means you get a chance to express yourself and show who you are and new media has many ways that allow you to do that with the personalization of your pages and layouts and what you want to display and how you want it displayed.

Then you get to be creative in a daily basis too when you're doing blogs and deciding what you want to say and you would want to be as creative and interesting as possible to be sure to keep your audience.

Also if you have creative interests in other areas of your life, new media allows you to not only showcase that interest, but also allows you to be creative in other ways regarding that as well, for instance if you're a ballerina, you can now blog about being a ballerina.
