Can a crowdsourcER do certain things to make a project more appealing to crowdsourcees? Will techniques and methodologies and new incentive systems arise?

Oh definitely ... I think Cambrian House, which is a crowdsourced software company, has been pretty smart in that regard First, you can't make it seem like work. And that really is, in the end, the way CH operates. They're asking people to a) propose an idea. And not just any idea, but a solid one that could withstand the scrutiny of a Venture Capitalist. And then they're asking others in the crowd to thoughtfully analyze that idea and give it a rating, and vote for it against other ideas, which they call "idea warz". And then finally, they're asking for coders to come in and help build the product. And all this in exchange for a slice of what is, at that point, imaginary Intellectual Property. Why do people do it? Because it's fun. Cambrian House knows it’s fun, and knows other people feel that way too. Coders like coding and some people are just inveterate inventors. So for them, it's not really work, and CH is careful to make the process enjoyable through a lot of community interaction, etc.

OPML ist eine XML basierende Sprache um Oulines zu beschreiben. Ich benutze OPML gerade umd die Navigationstruktur eines grossen, gewachsenen Intranets zu beschreiben.

Zur Zeit bin ich noch auf der Suche nach geeigneten Visaulisierunsmöglichkeiten:

With Microsoft's IE7 just around the corner and the other big Internet companies upgrading key information management products, 2007 is going to be the 'make it or break it' year for RSS. Fergus Burns noted these 4 key platforms, which are all set to ramp up over the next 6-12 months (my notes added):

1. IE7 from Microsoft + RSS integrated into Outlook 2007.
2. MySpace Widget Platform - potentially a new generation of "RSS Consumers".
3. Yahoo Mail - RSS integrated in 'Beta' version.
4. Google Reader release - RSS reading functionality will probably be integrated into Gmail.

Nick Bradbury:

"I think of RSS as a non-intrusive alert system. It tells me about new stuff, which usually means new blog posts, but in my case also includes incoming Gmail, bug reports from FogBugz, recent posts to our support forums, problem reports from my Feedburner alert feed, my NetFlix rental queue, and numerous other non-blog items."

Getting Real:

"People used to think of rss feeds as merely a good way to keep track of blogs or news sites. Feeds have more power than that though. They also provide a great way for customers to stay up to date on the changing content of an app without having to log in repeatedly."
