Creativity and New Media

Like I mentioned in my previous blog, technology such as internet, www, and web 2.0 have really made creativity possible for new media because they are designed for user-generated innovation. So basically what I did in order to experience virtual world, was to first create my own username "dortmund323", select my avatar and I chose to explore the Social Island. For those of us who play games, we might not really see much difference;  however, the most intriguing part of it, is the fact that I was able to customize certain things like selecting people to chat with, my destination etc..Also, I met couple of new friends on the Island. Still on "user-generated innovation", as user, I was able to create and customize content in a way that soothes me unlike the regular games where everything is predefined. Below pictures depicts my experience with virtual world while exploring the unknown Island.
