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.

What a great use of crowdsourcing!!! When you look at this as a way to create "web-justice" it actually opens the door to use crowds to create justice around many of the unjust things in this world. For instance - using crowdsourcing to help children in dangerous home situations or using crowdsourcing to right the wrongs in Darfur. Crowds have just begun to contribute as a combined voice - but as we give more people more "voice" we can make the world a better place.

Great to see a positive approach to "crowdsourcing" as it has been used in other instances in a negative manner.
