“#CROWDSOURCING tweet Book01 is a really varied collection of
quotes that would intrigue anyone about crowdsourcing. It is well
organized and allows one to get a glimpse of how people from very, very
diff erent walks of life see the usefulness and importance of ‘sourcing to
the crowd.’ I guess it is perhaps more intuitive than one would be led to
imagine. By compiling this set of tweets, [the authors] will help increase
the several dimensions through which the art and craft of crowdsourcing
will be viewed in the future.”
