Crowdsourcing : questioning and questions about the crowd

Résumé

The definition of the word “crowd” at the heart of “crowdsourcing” is prone to controversy. Its original meaning is a multitude of people gathered in one place. In the context of crowdsourcing however, this “place” is mainly virtual; we are talking about a digital crowd. Many of the facets of what we call a crowd come under question. Is the crowd a large number of individuals? Are they all in the same place? Does the crowd produce quality? This article discusses seven misconceptions about the word “crowd” in order to better delimit its morphology and contour.
