Crowdsourcing

An example of crowdsourcing is Angies List. Angies List is a website where people share reviews of different services such as babysiters or lawnmowers. To read and write reviews you need to buy a membership from Angies List. Tis information exchange is what makes it crowdsouring.

Another example of crowdsourcing is iStockPhotos. iStockPhotos is a website where people upload pictures and other people are able to buy these pictures. The buyers get the photo for cheap and the uploaders receive a small profit. This photo exchange is what makes this crowdsourcing.
