Crowdsourcing: A Definition

  • I like to use two definitions for crowdsourcing:

    The White Paper Version: Crowdsourcing is the act of taking a job traditionally performed by a designated agent (usually an employee) and outsourcing it to an undefined, generally large group of people in the form of an open call.

    The Soundbyte Version: The application of Open Source principles to fields outside of software.

The Rise of Crowdsourcing

  • Read the original article about crowdsourcing, published in the June, 2006 issue of Wired Magazine.

This question is certainly something that an Andrew Keen would ask. I think the system is not perfect but that's only because we haven't figured out the right incentives to motivate the people. Any crowdsourced project needs a platform that can simultaneously motivate people and aggregate/filter through the contributions to put the best results first. These systems will continue to improve as we better understand crowdsourcing and as more people participate in the process.

I think about crowdsourcing as the journalism of our century: Reliable and free from all those mass media prejudges.
