Gwyneth Llewelyn, in conjunction with the Kuurian Expedition in Second Life, will be hosting a symposium on Crowd Sourcing on Monday, November 13th, 2006, at 12:00 PM SLT. The following is an excerpt from Gwyneth’s announcement:
When a company decides that their own customers (or users) should be the ones submitting designs, code, content, documentation, to improve — or even to create — their products, this is called crowdsourcing, a buzzword coined by Wired Magazine’s Jeff Howe (who will be with us on stage) to describe a new model of companies that get free work from their users/customers.
The event will take place at the theater in Colonia Nova.
