Infrastructure Management White Papers

The Ultimate Wisdom of Crowds Platform

Tags:
infrastructure management

Overview The wisdom of crowds - the collective opinion of people about something - is obviously quite valuable, and arguably, often more valuable than the opinion of a single expert, even though admittedly, it is not always the case. If properly harnessed, the wisdom of crowds has the potential of becoming one of the most ubiquitous applications because it applies to anything and to anyone. An ultimate platform that covers all the different functions of the wisdom of crowds along with a comprehensive set of features that address the needs of all constituents; controlled by the crowd for the crowd with a sophisticated meritocracy system; wrapped up with a very rich user experience.
