User:Tonisant/Crowdsourcing

The concept of crowdsourcing is certainly an essential element in the M3P. It's a type of collaboration that goes beyond traditional forms of cooperation but builds on many of their strengths while sharing some of their flaws.

It's certainly something I need to understand better in making sure that the broader context for the M3P is understood more widely.
