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.

Nerd - A nerd is very similar to a geek, but with more RAM and a faster modem and often associated with very poor social skills!

Geek.-. Formerly, the term referred to a carnival performer often billed as a wild man whose act usually includes biting the head off a live chicken, bat, snake or bugs.

Hard choice to make Dave, good luck with SpotUs.

Regards, Alan

Later Dave. Your postings have been great. And for Alan's comment, I think I'm between a Geek and a Nerd. :P - Not really...

It appears that over time it’s not only the bottom line ($) that’s forcing change in the field of journalism but changed use of technologies is apparently going to result in fundamental changes in both our qualitative and quantitative abilities!
