The definitive collection of idea generation methods

Creativity is a hard thing to engage on-demand - often TRYING to be creative can completely short-circuit the process.

There are techniques that can assist in formulating ideas and facilitating free thinking - and this site is a fantastic resource for them. I've seen/used some of them in various work functions - but I love the idea of having them all in one place.

Enjoy

Seth's Blog

I'm a big fan of Seth Godin and his books. I have a folder on my PC called 'interesting articles' that for some reason I feel are worth CTRL-C 'ing from the web, CTRL-V 'ing into Word and maybe even converting to PDF - it's no small coincidence that many of them have either been written by or directed to me by Mr. Godin.
