Jim Boulton Quote
Crowdsourcing works on the basis that ‘the wisdom of the crowd’ is greater than that of an individual, even if that individual is an expert – an idea James Surowiecki devoted a whole book to. Surowiecki’s opening example in The Wisdom of Crowds dates back to 1906, when the crowd at a county fair were asked to guess individually the weight of a butchered ox. The average guess was much closer than that of cattle experts.
