Society uses various new media such as their phones, computers and the Internet to create just about anything. The imagination is a very peculiar thing, which people use to come up with extraordinary ideas to create incredible things. Take a look at a simple photograph that someone took of a person; using the computer people can manipulate the image whereas they can put words in it, cut off the head and put it on another person's body or animal body. This creativeness is often use as a joke and put on the Internet for everyone to view.
Another example of creativity is that Internet users are able to make an avatar, which is suppose to be a representation of their ideal self. They use this avatar to chat with others, play games or just interacting anyway possible. The Internet allows users to create or build anything that one's mind comes up with, a prime example of this are virtual worlds; this is where you can duplicate an existing area or create something that nobody has ever seen.
In the article "Twitter Serves Up Ideas From Its Followers" by Claire Cain Miller, it talks about how the company observes how people use their service and looks at what interests them to see what ideas catches on. The company then uses this information to develop new features on twitter. The article also talks about the Internet being a tool or a means to exchange ideas/information . This being done allows others to incorporate this information into something creative.
