I'm getting tired of using Google Translate all the time, there is a handy WP plugin called like global translator which will translate all your posts automatically- this will make reading articleson your great blog even more enjoyable.

I suppose Kiruba blogs only when he needs something from blog readers (acceptable) or to bash someone when he thinks that they have done some injustice to him. No blog entries for 2 months !!!

Who can make the best out of it? * Freelancers * Small cap software and design firms * Housewives * Beginners who want to add values in their career development Is this a new concept? * No. We already have siblings of crowdsourcing such as wikipedia, google earth, forums, blogging, twitting, etc. Greatness: * Working for multiple clients at the same time. * Tasks can be undertaken based on the interests. Pitfalls: * Larger tasks can not be split and crowdsourced. * No followup can be performed by the task owner, sometimes. * Many of the online companies such as data entry jobs do cheat task takers without paying them.

My learning and understanding on crowdsourcing..

Who can make the best out of it?
* Freelancers
* Small cap software and design firms

Is this a new concept?
* No. We already have siblings of crowdsourcing such as wikipedia, google earth, forums, blogging, twitting, etc.

Greatness:
* Working for multiple clients at the same time.
* Tasks can be undertaken based on the interests.

Pitfalls:
* Larger tasks can not be split and crowdsourced.
* No followup can be performed by the task owner, sometimes.
* Many of the online companies such as data entry jobs do cheat task takers without paying them. They will try to misuse in the name of crowdsourcing.
