Response to R3:

Crowdsourcing is something that I have known about for a long time, but not really all at the same time. Of course I have heard of wikipedia, as well as famous projects such as Star Wars Uncut, but i was not aware of the idea of crowdsourcing for a project and the term. Wikipedia is a great resouce, not for school essays or some topics where a real jerk changes the info, but for a quick look up and researching for personal projects, it is wonderful. There are pros and cons to this way of working. Pros include getting a cool and different look, having more work spread out among more people, and community between conspirators and collaborators. Cons include mistakes in information, length of time to complete project and poor time management. I look forward to completing the crowd sourcing project in class.
