I think that most posts are complaining that what is being called "content creation" has been reduced to simply organising others' content, which isn't without value but is minimally "creative".
- KevinEldon 15y agoIt may be minimally creative, but might be an essential ingredient for efficiently linking a person's interests with content related to those interests. Some of these comments show a heavy bias towards creating consumable content over actually creating something new and physical. My experience with users of Pinterest is that they increase their actual output of creative physical things. I think that's good. If they don't blog about their experience creating a new Christmas card holder or batch of cookies that's fine by me (I liked eating the cookies).
- nlawalker 15y agoThose cookies sound pretty consumable to me :) This is a good insight, and I echo it. My wife loves Pinterest and she gets new cooking and decorating ideas from it all the time.
