Information recycling for social creativity

Social brainstorming has become a popular group creativity technique to create a large number of ideas for solving problems. The social computing, for its advance in information processing and network communication, collaborates the social intelligence and enhances the social creativity in brainstorming. However, facing the dilemma of quantity deficiency in idea pondering or quality submergence in idea deluge, cooperative participants essentially require needed information for their innovative work rather than unnecessary disturbance. Therefore, in purpose of enhancing the social creativity, we propose the needed information recycling based on multi-features in meta-data and also the similarity in social graph, helping participants keep a global and local image of previous work and focus on innovation tasks. Given an experimental demo, we discuss the essential merits of the novel brainstorming through the comprehensive but collaborative inter-merge of the social network and computer network, and conclude that the needed information recycling breeds the efficient and effective social creativity.
