The experts have tried and failed to stop the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, but could the thousands of ordinary people ringing BP have the answer?
JAMES SUROWIECKI
: "If you want to make a correct decision or solve a problem, large groups of people are smarter than a few experts."

Conclusion
• The advantages of crowdsourcing are that it gives firms access to a potentially huge amount of labour outside of the firm which can complete necessary tasks often in a fraction of the time and at a fraction of the cost than if the same activities were conducted in-house.
• Some of the available ‘crowd’ may have limited skills but they will be willing to take on repetitive, menial tasks which cannot easily be performed by computers.
• On the other hand selected crowds may have a degree of expertise not available within the firm which can work to solve more complex issues or tasks.
• With particularly applicability to the marketing field, crowdsourcing allows firms to harvest ideas from a wide and diverse collection of individuals with experiences and outlooks different from those that exist within the firm.
And you? You are all crowdsourcing for echo-trails ..
