Netonomy: Peer Production

video Distributed Knowledge
Description
Crowdsourcing is a form of peer production whereby companies and organizations outsource projects by leveraging the so-called “wisdom of the crowd” through distributed collaboration. In contrast to outsourcing, with crowdsourcing the task is performed by an undefined public rather than a specific agent. This is creating new opportunities for microjobs and freelancing.
