Crowdsourcing and its uses.

I really enjoyed this week because of all of the discussions about Crowdsourcing. I had never actually heard of the concept of crowdsourcing but it is brilliant. I enjoyed seeing all of the different uses at Carnegie Mellon and how it was being used as a free concept to solve what would have cost millions and millions of dollars. Also, it was neat to see how the games were actually quite fun. I threw my name in the pot to be chosen for the duolingo.com private beta in a few weeks. The activity I made with Zoe and the rest of our group also worked out surprisingly well.
