January 04, 2005 Does the open source model apply beyond software? Does the open source model apply beyond software? This is a question being asked more and more. For instance, is there potential for "open source biology"? I'll go out on a limb. Part of me doesn't want to say this, even though I believe it, because too many times I've regretted my public stands saying that revolutionary change via technology (the PC, the Internet) was at hand. A final aside - I care about these matters because I like and appreciate the good side of business so much. Business, writ large, is the archetypal form around which our world is organized. To say, then, that open source represents a fundamentally new and different way to organize economic activity which challenges the dominant paradigm, is not a modest claim.

Many of the best efforts to characterize what is fundamental about open source partially miss the mark. More to come… Posted by mitch@osafoundation.org at January 04, 2005 08:46 AM Dear Mitch, DIGITAL MAOISM: The Hazards of the New Online Collectivism By Ja. On "Digital Maoism: The Hazards of the New Online Collectivism" By Jaron Lanier Responses to Lanier's essay from Douglas Rushkoff, Quentin Hardy, Yochai Benkler, Clay Shirky, Cory Doctorow, Kevin Kelly, Esther Dyson, Larry Sanger, Fernanda Viegas & Martin Wattenberg, Jimmy Wales, George Dyson, Dan Gillmor, Howard Rheingold Now, another big idea is taking hold, but this time it's more painful for some people to embrace, even to contemplate.

It's nothing less than the migration from individual mind to collective intelligence. I call it "here comes everybody", and it represents, for good or for bad, a fundamental change in our notion of who we are. In other words, we are witnessing the emergence of a new kind of person. Lately, there's been a lot of news concerning the Wikipedia and other user-generated websites such as Myspace, Flickr, and others. "At first, it seemed like the sort of silly, self-serving thing that many companies are wont to say about their products. "The mass. . — Clay Shirky.

Abstract Despite increasing evidence and recognition of users as innovators, our understanding of the role of users in the innovation process is incomplete. Crowdsourcing Innovation: Q&A with Dwayne Spradlin of InnoCentiv.

In recent years, corporations have turned to open innovation to solve their toughest research problems and reduce runaway costs of R&D. Now non-profits are beginning to see prize-based innovation as a strategy for humanitarian causes too, such as developing medicines to fight tuberculosis in the developing world, cleaning up oil spills or designing solar technologies for villages in rural India and Africa. InnoCentive is the premier open innovation marketplace in the world, where corporations and non-profits post their toughest research problems and a global network of 160,000 solvers takes a crack at solving them for cash rewards. Non-profit challenges have grown to about 20 percent of the InnoCentive portfolio, up from virtually none only two years ago.

In this Q&A, InnoCentive president and CEO Dwayne Spradlin explains why crowdsourcing is becoming a powerful tool for doing good. --Is InnoCentive doing more in the non-profit space? We’re doing more in the non-profit space than ever. Open Innovation | Innovation Management. P&G Connect + Develop - Portal Home. Open Innovation: A Bibliography.

By Jeff HowePage 1 of 4 next » 1. The Professional Story Tools Story Images Click thumbnails for full-size image: Claudia Menashe needed pictures of sick people. In October 2004, she ran across a stock photo collection by Mark Harmel, a freelance photographer living in Manhattan Beach, California. The National Health Museum has grand plans to occupy a spot on the National Mall in Washington by 2012, but for now it’s a fledgling institution with little money.

After several weeks of back-and-forth, Menashe emailed Harmel to say that, regretfully, the deal was off. iStockphoto, which grew out of a free image-sharing exchange used by a group of graphic designers, had undercut Harmel by more than 99 percent. He can’t, of course. It took a while for Harmel to recognize what was happening. Crowdsourcing. Crowdsourcing bezeichnet die Auslagerung traditionell interner Teilaufgaben an eine Gruppe freiwilliger User, z. B. über das Internet. Diese Bezeichnung ist an den Begriff Outsourcing angelehnt, die Auslagerung von Unternehmensaufgaben und -strukturen an Drittunternehmen.[1] Begriff[Bearbeiten] Crowdsourcing ist ein von dem amerikanischen Journalisten Jeff Howe (Wired Magazine) geprägter Begriff,[2] der erstmals 2006 in dem von Howe verfassten Artikel "The Rise of Crowdsourcing" vorgestellt wurde.[3] Definition nach Nicole Martin, Stefan Lessmann und Stefan Voß: "Crowdsourcing ist eine interaktive Form der Leistungserbringung, die kollaborativ oder wettbewerbsorientiert organisiert ist und eine große Anzahl extrinsisch oder intrinsisch motivierter Akteure unterschiedlichen Wissensstands unter Verwendung moderner IuK-Systeme auf Basis des Web 2.0 einbezieht.
