Thanks for the suggestion :-) It looks like an interesting site and concept. I searched to see if there were any suggestions for ThinkCube yet -- none I could find.

Hi Kes,

Thanks for the kind words, I'm excited to be part of a community that's focused on sharing ideas and innovation. It's an area that I've been interested in and now I'm fortunate to have a job that makes this my key focus. I'd love to share notes and ideas.

Hi Kes

I was wondering if you'd be able to add the forum to the features bar (the one with: main, invite, my page, members etc) above?

Hi John,

I think getting a blog post about this would be a great idea. Here are some of my goals with the Social Network Site which you could include:

1) ThinkCube Users Group - a place to come and ask questions about ThinkCube and how to use it.

2) Innovation and Creativity Tools/Techniques - a place to describe other innovations tools and techniques

3) Brainstorm area - Host brainstorm topics that people can join in a group brainstorm.

4) Collect and Share ideas between members - a place where people can share ideas that they have collected (this is not ideas they have had, but more ideas that they have read about etc.) - A place to suggest future ideas for the Idea Library

5) Training area - A place to put hints and tips on creativity. Some creativity exercises and some training videos etc.


I want this to be more than just a ThinkCube social network and more an overall innovation social network. I want the community to help mold what they would like this place to be.

Thanks,

Kes

Hi Kes

Hi Jimmy,

Welcome to the ThinkCube social network. As you mention this social network is just starting up. We only just got the site completed thanks to Brendan (Intention Engine). We are going to be sending more invites out and trying to make this 'The Place' to bring people and ideas together.

I look forward to your suggestions and help around ThinkCube and education.

I wanted to also introduce you to Brendan (Intention Engine) who is also interested in ThinkCube and Education.

Kes

Good Artists Copy, Great Artists Steal - to me is about how when a great artist understands the thought that went into a great idea or a piece of art, they don't just create a replica, they generate a piece of original art themselves that draws from the very essence of an idea. It's the difference bet… Continue
