Crowdsourcing: Connecting in times of Struggle.
During natural disasters and emergencies, communities in crisis need to get help as quickly as possible. With the introduction of the internet, these communities have a resource to get their message out to the wider population allowing help to arrive quickly.
In order to have a better understanding of this relationship, Jeff Howe (who coined the term crowdsourcing) explains it in this short video.
Putting crowdsourcing into practice is non-for profit business Ushahidi. Ushahidi was developed in 2008 when there were large amounts of post-election violence in Kenya. Their technology was used to map out sections where there were cases of violence to help out the people in society. Since their inception, they have continued to assist communities in crisis worldwide during times of natural disaster and political unease.
You can read more about them ‘here’.
By creating a platform that allows everyday people to report instances of crisis and disaster, it allows the public to have a voice in situations of natural disaster and political unease.
In Mark T. Riccardi’s study ‘The power of crowdsourcing in disaster response situations’ concludes that by allowing the public to have a voice in times of unease and distress it gives them a sense of control over their situation. It allows the public to alert officials or outer society of what is happening and what is needed.
Crowdsourcing and apps that assist in it help create a modern public sphere.
It allows the public voice and concerns to be heard by governments and outside countries, and as a result, brings change to the public. Crowdsourcing online gives anyone with an internet connection the chance to be heard when it is needed most. It brings awareness to the wider communities and puts pressure on communities and governments to act on the demands and needs of the public, in ways that will benefit the community.
Crowdsourcing is not a recent concept however with the introduction of the internet, it allows more voices to be heard that might not have been heard if we solely relied on traditional media resources.
Remember outsourcing? Sending jobs to India and China is so 2003. The new pool of cheap labor: everyday people using their spare cycles to create content, solve problems, even do corporate R & D.
The informative (but dated) article I was going to link to... I think it’s a bit of a must-read on crowdsourcing

The Patriots are ranked fourth in points allowed per game (18.8) and second in rushing yards allowed per game (88.2), but they don’t seem to be getting the same recognition as the three better-ranked scoring defenses: Cincinnati (16.9 points per game), Minnesota (17.1) and Denver (18.7). And consider this: The Pats have surrendered the second most garbage-time points in the league with 35 points allowed with at least a 14-point lead in the fourth quarter. (The Raiders have allowed 38 largely because they coughed up 23 to the Chargers in Week 7.) The Bengals (27 garbage-time points) are close, but the Vikings (14) and Broncos (0) aren’t. Take away those garbage-time points, and here’s how those four teams would be ranked in scoring defense: Bengals (13.9), Patriots (14.9), Vikings (15.6) and Broncos (18.7).
Jeff Howe, Friday 6-Pack: The Patriots' defense deserves more recognition
“We always see things eye to eye. We both want to win. That’s what it’s always about for us, and I think that’s why we get along so well. There’s nothing that surprises me with him. When he puts his mind to something there’s nobody better at figuring it out.”

The Pats have a decisive advantage with their secondary against the Seahawks receivers, so they should try to win one-on-one on the outside and stack the box against Lynch, who is the offense’s true catalyst. Stop Lynch at all costs and live and die with the Wilson matchup. That’s the way to combat the Seahawks.
