In this paper, we report on our experiences with a
generic collaborative creativity support system with the
focus on how users accept the system and how it

a toolset of different creativity techniques under one
single user-interface. A field study indicated that this
effectively lowered the barrier for the team to try
various creativity techniques for their problems, which
in term had a positive impact on their creative thinking
