Internet: Now and then every one literally jumps into the internet to find information, such as images, info, etc
I wonder what happened to going to the library.
I personally wouldn't say i ain't a victim of the internet for i know i am. well in context i use the internet to search for information especially if its design.
I use the internet to find out if there ain't a similar design to mine. I use it to broaden my knowledge of the do's and don'ts and in any field it can help me with. Yet again i found out that sometimes you got to open your options wider, because we have been swamped by this electronic devise we seem not to care about copy right or even asking for someone's permission.
To my own opinion yes i have been a victim. i just realized that i only need the internet to back up my options my notes my ideas my ups and downs , what went well and what didn't go well. The internet is an addiction to we beings in which we all depend on.

This link here provides and infact has said what i have thought already.
i started with the internet because in colleges infact schools as well the first thing when they ask us to do an assignment is that we go straight unto the net.
Even now as we speak, chat, write etc allot and millions of people are doing it.
even this blogger.
Library: it is said that a library is a collection of similar objects that are stored for occasional use - most frequently, programs in source code or object code form, data files, script s, template s, font s, and physical use
The library is a very useful tool for me. sometimes the internet has loads of junks in it that it seems so confusing, even to find a meaning of an item we forget to use the dictionary.
The library i would say has been very useful to me or for me, it helps me broaden my knowledge more and makes me or at least try and make me understand what am searching for .
Most of the times the answers are in the library. we beings tend to have a lazy attitude not to bother to read and understand contents we fell like the library is an old school thing but i totally disagree with it .
It came to a stage whereby i had to design a direct mail CD cover to a client i went straight to the net but all i found was a repetition of commercial based designs, i found nothing edgy and artistic.
using the library is valuable to you and unto others its a tool which has to been in us to find resources and to back up our opinion.
Events: I currently work as an event receptionist whereby the company "the Brewery" hold all sorts of events from dinner to conferences. I have met and spoken to designers and even label designers.
where i currently work the slogan is called " the scene to be seen" the reason of the particular slogan is because we offer and accomplish designs at the brewery.
Attending events to see things in real life helps you open your creative mind it gets you involved it makes you think what you could have done better if you were in that scenario.
Galleries: As an individual am a fan of going to galleries to see what's happening.
whether it be it in london outside london i tend to attend.
the reason being is because it opens your creativity it also creates this knowledge of mind character in you .
Like Sir Francis Bacon said " Knowledge is Power" i used that slogan due to the fact that am relating it to the london 2012 logo.
when that logo was produced allot of people i would say millions complain how rubbish it was but funny enough that took recognition.
Now its all over across the globe people recognise it a lot of people manipulate the logo because it has been in our mindset how valuable it is.
Artist, designers now we all come up with crazy ideas. for an example i went to a show whereby i saw the men's cubicle displayed as a piece of art. That when i realised that art can be anything.
Facebook-CREATIVE PIECE: this is a social networking site whereby everyone can interact with each other.
i found this very useful because i could find out about events , when, where and what time its happening . i could also pass on information to my colleagues and we could also debate on anything. In my facebook , i joined other creative site and their facebook.
Creative piece is a site i joined whereby all sort of events happens and sometimes i get live brief form them as well
