A short animated film by Crowdsourcing.org, narrated by Crowdsourcing.org's Founder, Carl Esposti, describing the four different ways Crowdsourcing works and the five different categories of things you can do with crowdsourcing.
See how to tap the power of the crowd for creative projects (Crowd Creativity), to collect and organize knowledge (Distributed Knowledge), how to use the crowd to develop and test new ideas (Open Innovation), to access an on-demand scalable workforce (Cloud Labor) and how to use the crowd to raise capital (Crowdfunding). Also, there are tools you can use to help you with your crowdsourcing initiatives.
Thanks to the participating Crowdsourcing Service Providers for supporting this project:

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. In this informative talk, Dr. Swart shares illuminating stories from his international work in the field of crowdsourcing that will make you rethink the way businesses run their product development and marketing. You'll be surprised to hear what he has to say about the future...and the present.
Richard Swart runs a research program at UC Berkeley studying the intersection of innovation and social funding mechanisms. He is one of the world’s top experts in crowdfunding dynamics. He works with the US Government, the World Bank, and the European Union where he advises on the use of crowdfunding and crowdsourcing to spur innovation. Frequently playing at the intersection of startups and research, Richard undertook a research project years ago studying networking. He used this knowledge to build one of the nation’s largest communities for entrepreneurs and small businesses – one of the fastest growing meetups ever formed. Dr. Swart consults with many companies to mentor their executives on how to leverage the power of networking and build innovation capacity. He is avidly interested in the intersection of science and the social graph – and how changing social dynamics allow us to collectively solve complex problems.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Crowdsourcing" has, virtually overnight, generated huge buzz, enthusiasm, and fear. It's the application of the open-source idea to any field outside of software, taking a function performed by people in an organization, such as reporting done by journalists, research and product development by scientists, or design of a T-shirt, for example, and, in effect, "outsourcing" it through an open-air broadcast on the Internet. Crowdsourcing has already had a huge impact on big companies like Procter & Gamble, as well as start-ups like Threadless.com, which rapidly became the third largest T-shirt maker in the United States. The fuel sparking the crowdsourcing flame is the potent combination of more highly educated people working in fields other than those in which they were trained (think of the art historian peddling financial advice at Merrill Lynch) with the greatest mechanism for distributing knowledge and information the world has ever seen: the Internet.

We all struggle to make the best decisions possible. But what if we could make every important decision with the help of the smartest people in the world? Sound impossible? Surprisingly, we can all access the collective wisdom of hundreds or even thousands of people who together are as smart as any expert adviser.
With more than half of all adult Americans using Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, more and more of us are turning to crowdsourcing to find information about finance, relationships, careers, and much more. Lior Zoref calls this “mindsharing,” a form of crowdsourcing that doesn’t ask people to think for us but instead to think with us. Going beyond our small circle of connections for advice and support, mindsharing allows us to harness the much greater power of our ‘weak’ connections.
Mindsharing is being applied to decisions as small as how to design a business card and as major as buying a house. Whether you need to make better financial choices, find the love of your life, or transform your career, Zoref will show you how to harness the collective intelligence of a broad and diverse crowd.
If the old saying is true that two brains are better than one, get ready to benefit from the power of fifty, five hundred, or five thousand brains.

Let me know if you have any good ideas for Patreon subscriber rewards!
By now a few (very kind) people have actually asked me if I could set up a Patreon page or some other crowdsourcing page to contribute to. My reviews are currently being hampered by a lack of a 24mp APS-C camera and 24mp mirrorless camera, so I thought I'd put it to all of you for support. Patreon is also a handy 'tip jar' for anyone who's found my videos useful or entertaining and would just like to contribute a little (although my videos will, of course, always be free).

Crowdsourcing - is a process that involves outsourcing tasks to a distributed group of people. This process can occur both online and offline. The difference between crowdsourcing and ordinary outsourcing is that a task or problem is outsourced to an undefined public rather than a specific body, such as paid employees.
A good example, is threadless.com, one of the original crowdsourcing sites that pioneered the idea a decade ago and is now paying out more than $1 million a year in artist fees, they allow other organisations to use community-based design to further their mission and causes,

Crowdsourcing is a process that involves outsourcing tasks to a distributed group of people. This process can occur both online and offline, and the difference between crowdsourcing and ordinary outsourcing is that a task or problem is outsourced to an undefined public rather than a specific body, such as paid employees.
Crowdsourcing is related to, but not the same as, human-based computation, which refers to the ways in which humans and computers can work together to solve problems. These two methods can be used together to accomplish tasks.
Crowdsourcing is a distributed problem-solving and production model. In the classic use of the term, problems are broadcast to an unknown group of solvers in the form of an open call for solutions. Users—also known as the crowd—submit solutions. Solutions are then owned by the entity that broadcast the problem in the first place—the crowdsourcer. The contributor of the solution is, in some cases, compensated either monetarily, with prizes, or with recognition. In other cases, the only rewards may be kudos or intellectual satisfaction. Crowdsourcing may produce solutions from amateurs or volunteers working in their spare time, or from experts or small businesses which were unknown to the initiating organization.

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. In this informative talk, Dr. Swart shares illuminating stories from his international work in the field of crowdsourcing that will make you rethink the way businesses run their product development and marketing. You'll be surprised to hear what he has to say about the future...and the present.
Richard Swart runs a research program at UC Berkeley studying the intersection of innovation and social funding mechanisms. He is one of the world’s top experts in crowdfunding dynamics. He works with the US Government, the World Bank, and the European Union where he advises on the use of crowdfunding and crowdsourcing to spur innovation. Frequently playing at the intersection of startups and research, Richard undertook a research project years ago studying networking. He used this knowledge to build one of the nation’s largest communities for entrepreneurs and small businesses – one of the fastest growing meetups ever formed. Dr. Swart consults with many companies to mentor their executives on how to leverage the power of networking and build innovation capacity. He is avidly interested in the intersection of science and the social graph – and how changing social dynamics allow us to collectively solve complex problems.

Frequently playing at the intersection of startups and research, Richard undertook a research project years ago studying networking. He used this knowledge to build one of the nation’s largest communities for entrepreneurs and small businesses – one of the fastest growing meetups ever formed. Dr. Swart consults with many companies to mentor their executives on how to leverage the power of networking and build innovation capacity. He is avidly interested in the intersection of science and the social graph – and how changing social dynamics allow us to collectively solve complex problems.

Crowdsourcing" has, virtually overnight, generated huge buzz, enthusiasm, and fear. It's the application of the open-source idea to any field outside of software, taking a function performed by people in an organization, such as reporting done by journalists, research and product development by scientists, or design of a T-shirt, for example, and, in effect, "outsourcing" it through an open-air broadcast on the Internet. Crowdsourcing has already had a huge impact on big companies like Procter & Gamble, as well as start-ups like Threadless.com, which rapidly became the third largest T-shirt maker in the United States. The fuel sparking the crowdsourcing flame is the potent combination of more highly educated people working in fields other than those in which they were trained (think of the art historian peddling financial advice at Merrill Lynch) with the greatest mechanism for distributing knowledge and information the world has ever seen: the Internet.

We all struggle to make the best decisions possible. But what if we could make every important decision with the help of the smartest people in the world? Sound impossible? Surprisingly, we can all access the collective wisdom of hundreds or even thousands of people who together are as smart as any expert adviser.
With more than half of all adult Americans using Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, more and more of us are turning to crowdsourcing to find information about finance, relationships, careers, and much more. Lior Zoref calls this “mindsharing,” a form of crowdsourcing that doesn’t ask people to think for us but instead to think with us. Going beyond our small circle of connections for advice and support, mindsharing allows us to harness the much greater power of our ‘weak’ connections.
Mindsharing is being applied to decisions as small as how to design a business card and as major as buying a house. Whether you need to make better financial choices, find the love of your life, or transform your career, Zoref will show you how to harness the collective intelligence of a broad and diverse crowd.
If the old saying is true that two brains are better than one, get ready to benefit from the power of fifty, five hundred, or five thousand brains.

Let me know if you have any good ideas for Patreon subscriber rewards!
By now a few (very kind) people have actually asked me if I could set up a Patreon page or some other crowdsourcing page to contribute to. My reviews are currently being hampered by a lack of a 24mp APS-C camera and 24mp mirrorless camera, so I thought I'd put it to all of you for support. Patreon is also a handy 'tip jar' for anyone who's found my videos useful or entertaining and would just like to contribute a little (although my videos will, of course, always be free).

Crowdsourcing - is a process that involves outsourcing tasks to a distributed group of people. This process can occur both online and offline. The difference between crowdsourcing and ordinary outsourcing is that a task or problem is outsourced to an undefined public rather than a specific body, such as paid employees.
A good example, is threadless.com, one of the original crowdsourcing sites that pioneered the idea a decade ago and is now paying out more than $1 million a year in artist fees, they allow other organisations to use community-based design to further their mission and causes,
