 Excellent read! October 21, 2008

I purchased this book based on a recommendation of a few work colleagues, and have been quite happy with it. It is well laid out, very direct in the messages it provides, and gives you insight into the process of conceptualizing ideas.
Ideas are all around; are you ready to spot them?
 Quick morning reading August 4, 2008

It is a fun, well executed little book full of quotations what other people did or do and ordinary things most of us know, but tend to forget. Do not expect any miraculous formulas how to come up with the most amazing creative ideas easy and quickly. It is not there. It is good to flip through over your every day morning coffe or tea and suck out one or two ideas for the day.
 Dissapointing March 3, 2008

This book was pretty dissapointing. The format is annoying and difficult to read and most suggestions offered in the book are very cliche. If you are looking for a book to give you creative ideas, look somewhere else.

I read this as soon as it arrived in the mail, and was done with the book several hours later. I'm a graphic designer and was in a bit of a creative drought, and reading this book really helped lift my creative spirits and got those creative juices flowing. There's lots of inspirational stories about Fortune 500 companies and their design teams, and what they do to get their staff motivated and creative. I've already started implementing several of the ideas into my own staff at work. This is a must read for anyone looking to get that creative spark going.

A very quick read (could easily be knocked out in a weekend), this book is a good mixture of actionable items and creative stimulation. Get out of your comfort zone and pay attention to everything around you is one of the themes of this book along with taking good notes in some fashion because your creative thoughts and ideas may not be as easy to remember as you believe they will be at a later time. Anyone can be creative if they put themselves in a postion to encourage it.
Overall, I really liked the book and appreciate the advice and action items contained within. If you're looking to stimulate your creative juices, get and read Idea Spotting. I also read Zing, and Idea Spotting contains similar material so if you're wondering which book to choose--go with this one.
