Content over Technology

Innovate the content, not the technology.

Maybe it is best for us to just stick to the same technology, and rather than focusing on innovating the technology, striving to innovate the content.

For example, you don’t need to innovate with writing apps. Just innovate with the writing itself. IA writer and markdown, then just focus on innovating your message or your idea.

Also with photography, perhaps we don’t need more innovative cameras, we should stick with the cameras we already got and know, and instead innovate with artistic compositions, and the type of photos we make.

Also for myself, I’m always looking for a better blog theme, but maybe I should just stick with the theme I already got, and just focus on innovating what I post, and innovate the content I publish.

Why are we so obsessed about technology anyways?

Maybe we see technology as the new advantage, as the new god power, also because technology is what is marketers marketed to us the strongest.

For example, I don’t really know any other photographers on the Internet who encourage photographers to just stick with their old camera, and innovate with their composition and approach, instead they just want us to buy new cameras.
