A new and extensive study by Maaretta Törrö for VTT contributes to the global intellectual capital brokering (read: crowdsourcing) environment by stating that there still lies a large unexploited potential in collaborating with the crowds. It’s nice to see the Finnish VTT (Technical Research Centre of Finland) focusing strongly on social media and sociality in [...]

Google Reader as your knowledge management shuriken

Steve Rubel has a helpful post for those struggling with a flood of unread feeds on their readers (focus is on Google Reader, but the same principles can be applied to other readers as well).

MyFootballClub makes good of its promise

How did I miss this: MyFootballClub.co.uk has finally (last month) reached the point its members have been waiting for since its launch last April: they have acquired a controlling stake in Ebbsfleet United! Next year, people will be controlling the doings of UK’s first truly crowd-managed sportsteam. This is very remarkable also because Ebbsfleet is [...]

Henri just wrote about the Garfield strip randomizer and its promise as a viral marketing tool for Garfield, should the company behind the brand be awake enough to utilize it. Just finishing up (yes, on xmas holiday, since it’s the only time available) my thesis on crowdsourcing, I felt compelled to comment on this one [...]
