Agenda

• There are lots of crowdsourcing platforms out there, including Chaordix, IdeaScale, CrowdSpirit, Zyrist, and MobIncentive. 

• Anybody actually implemented one? • Anybody know what works and what doesn't? • The idea seems simple enough, but obviously the platform and its capabilities, stability and extensibility can affect the success of the crowdsourcing effort.

• Let's learn from one another about what makes a good plaform, and a good crowdsourcing project.

What is Crowdsourcing?

• Crowdsourcing is a neologism for the act of taking tasks traditionally performed by an employee or contractor, and outsourcing them to a group (crowd) of people or community in the form of an open call. 

• For example, the public may be invited to develop a new technology, carry out a design task (also known as community‐based design[1] and distributed participatory design), refine or carry out the steps of an algorithm (see Human‐based computation), or help capture, systematize or analyze large amounts of data (see also citizen science).
