What little gem have you learned from one of your projects?

dougw

I've been thinking - I have learned so much from content found on this forum and participating on the forum has resulted in so many new ideas, whether it is branching off others' ideas or synthesizing new ideas during projects or trying to answer member questions. It suddenly dawned on me just how much this forum has contributed directly or indirectly to my knowledge and my ideas.

These questions are just to highlight this aspect of the forum, in case you are like me and haven't stepped back to think about it.

  1. Do you learn more from reading about other people's projects?
  2. Do you find this forum sparks project ideas that you want to pursue?
  3. How does it rank versus other sources of ideas?
  4. Have you found that comments on this forum help refine your ideas?

By the way, thank you to all you great contributors to my knowledge and ideas - these things are important to me.

    Do you learn more from reading about other people's projects?

    I am constantly learning from reading about other people's projects and/or blogs.  There have been many times during reading this content, that I have found myself drifting off a bit and thinking "How can I use this technique/process/concept?".  The creativity on this site is off the chart, from the top to the bottom of the membership.

    Do you find this forum sparks project ideas that you want to pursue?

    Constantly!

    How does it rank versus other sources of ideas?

    I find that I learn better by following along with another person's experience as opposed to reading a textbook.  For me, reading blogs is more like listening to another person's thoughts or like listening to a lecture. This has always been my sweet spot of a learning experience (I have always suspected that I might a slight Dyslexia thing going on).

    Have you found that comments on this forum help refine your ideas?

    Definitely! Getting feedback from others has often helped be to see my problems or solutions in a new light.  The comments are sort of like brainstorming, which has mostly been a positive experience throughout my career.

    And thank you for all the thought-provoking materials/projects/blogs that you have created and shared here.
