Crowd sourcing is everywhere...... (?)

As you are reading this blog, you might have started to think about whether or not this blog is relevant for you. We are trying to reach out to all kinds of people - people who just are interested in crowd sourcing, people who wants to know how to use crowd sourcing, small companies, big companies and people who wants to know about its effectiveness. The list goes on. But if you are like me, Alex, Camille and Coco - Just college students trying to learn more about it.
Then I have a question for you.

Have you ever used crowd sourcing?
As your brain starts to speed up, you should might consider this: Crowd sourcing is everywhere! In different types, they are all over. You ask your friends what they think about the new pair of jeans your just bought. You are seeking their opinion..

Second, have you ever colored your hair and wondering if it was the right color for you, or wondered where to go on vacation and asked your friends on Facebook; "Should I stay brunette, or should I go back to blonde?" "Does anyone have a recommendation on where I should go for vacation this summer?" All of this is crowd sourcing, and we are using them almost everyday!

  1. Interesting thought. That reminds me of a friend who recently asked on Facebook which winter jacket to buy, the red or the blue one. Have you ever used it or would you use it?

  2. Yes, I have used it! Many times actually. And the good thing about it is that people usually gives you the answer of the first thought that pops up in their head :-)
