The Ignorance of Crowds
Monday: June 4, 2007 12:36 AM
In Strategy & Business, Nicholas Carr (Author of Does IT Matter) has written an article about the application of "peer production" to business innovation. The title the magazine gave the piece is "The Ignorance of Crowds," but it's really more about the weaknesses, or limitations, of crowds. As usual, Mr. Carr provides us an image and insight that we blindly ignore in our pursuit of collaboration.
