Designing Our Own

This article brings up a good point on the direction we are heading towards in the future. Everyone wants to make a contribution to things. They don’t want to just sit back and watch the “professionals� do all the work. This mentality has caused sites like YouTube and Wikipedia to flourish. I personally don’t see anything wrong with how the times are changing. Everyone can express their own opinion on things and design things the way they want. For example, if you go on the PUMA shoe website you can literally design a shoe from scratch. People want to do everything themselves because they believe their ideas and opinions are better than others. It helps them design things that fit their lifestyle the best.
