Why does Procter & Gamble repeatedly call on enthusiastic amateurs to solve scientific and technical challenges? How can companies as diverse as iStockphoto and Threadless employ just a handful of people, yet generate millions of dollars in revenue every year?
"Crowdsourcing" is how the power of the many can be leveraged to accomplish feats that were once the responsibility of a specialized few. Jeff Howe reveals that the crowd is more than wise–it’s talented, creative, and stunningly productive. It’s also a perfect meritocracy, where age, gender, race, education, and job history no longer matter; the quality of the work is all that counts. If you can perform the service, design the product, or solve the problem, you’ve got the job.
But crowdsourcing has also triggered a dramatic shift in the way work is organized, talent is employed, research is conducted, and products are made and marketed. As the crowd comes to supplant traditional forms of labor, pain and disruption are inevitable, and Howe delves into both the positive and negative consequences of this intriguing phenomenon. Through extensive reporting from the front lines of this workplace revolution, he employs a brilliant array of stories to look at the economic, cultural, business, and political implications of crowdsourcing.

評分第一次知道众包这个词,是朋友告知有一本新书:《众包:大众力量缘何推动商业未来》。现在,我真的买了这本书拜读起来,书刚刚才看完第二章,觉得有点枯燥、太过于理论,所以决定先发表一下我对众包的理解或想法。 众包这个词现在越来越新潮,很多的人都在引用,那么,什么是...
評分 評分正如书名:大众力量缘何推动商业未来。众包只是推动的力量之一,而且仅能推动并非革命性的力量。 作为一种新的思维和模式,无疑引起了人们的思考。而当这种模式在很多领域取得进展并有成功案例的时候(比如,豆瓣),也引起了很多的复制者。但是众包中何种模式才能成功,书中...
