Crowdsourcing revisited
Last February we introduced the amazing world of 'Crowdsourcing' to all of you and the reaction was what we expected: awe struck amazement!
The crowd sourcing concept comes from combining a crowd with outsourcing.
Well, it's been a year and the number of new crowdsourcing concepts has exploded across the globe.
Everyone in the world can either be part of the crowd that provide services or use these types of services via the Internet.
Listen in to see what we have uncovered that could change the way you look at the Internet!
