"Creativity at your
service"
"Never underestimate the power
of a small group of people to change the world. In fact it is the
only way it ever has." Margaret Mead
Creative
Ideas provides
insights, new perspectives, illuminates solutions, and inspires
new lines of thought. We are as fast as the
internet, and convenient
as
Email.
Let us show you how
valuable ideas can be delivered worldwide in the blink of an
eye - imagine ... all you can imagine!
Because we're interested in
projects serving meritorious purposes we provide non-profits,
community organizations and charities with free services. When we
work with governments, business, or corporate entities we
negotiate considerations on a case by case, basis. Please, look
over our Mission
Statement to
understand our unique motivation and circumstances.

collection handy for those beginning to build their own sites, as

the nature of creativity.
Want more
news with your news? For
a time we supported a news service, it was designed as a review of
the political developments in the United States and the world.
The
Weather Report is now
an archive of stories which it is felt demonstrates the poor
direction this nation took during during the years subsequent to
the turn of the previous millennia. Copies are for sale but what
is the point of that, I ask you. In sum it was discontinued after
completing its mission. With that point firmly established, if you
are not satisfied with the status quo please visit
Creative Ideas for Political Solutions and
Evolutions to see our
model of a political party platform that might be for
you.

Mission
Statement:
Creativity is my exceptional gift
and I share my ideas. CI exists to help others. They may use ideas
I have on display or I can create something tailor made to suit
their circumstances. Our ongoing purpose is to explore how we can
share our talents with individuals, companies, corporations,
governments and nonprofit charitable organizations in order to
ameliorate social conditions and enhance the positive development
of the human community on Earth. Our overarching interest, or
concern, is Social Engineering: the practical
study, research and development, theorizing, experimentation and
trials of methods and means by which our global society becomes
self-aware. super-conscious, and capable of redesigning its
structures, operations, practices, management, to the benefit of
the entire body politic of the global civilization. This site is
dedicated to ideas that would facilitate positive societal change.
These ideas are free to use, research, experiment upon, with, and
so on.
This mission began decades ago, in
the mid to late 1960's when I began formulations which then
evolved over time. Suffice it to say, I have long felt a need to
address the condition of the human community on this planet.
Creative Ideas operates toward that grand end. This is why an
underlying theme in many of my ideas, concepts for business or
programs is Social Engineering. I believe that this is the most
effective means of reweaving the social-psychological fabric of
our global society. I also believe that some of the ideas on
display could do just that and, further, that other ideas also
await creation. In sum, there is reason for optimism despite the
fairly consistent news stream and or impression that there is not
a reason for optimism.
It is in that very special vein in
which I admit to excitement. I am glad to report the latest
development in these, my efforts. I have created a collection of
ideas theses publicly available for the consideration of
researchers everywhere. Although these are mainly focused on
social engineering, there are other ideas, big and small, see:
