Crowdsourcing is a brand new word created last year (2006), after "outsourcing". It has not been translated in French yet, but soon will be - we are working on it. Who are "we" ? We are all the available brains on the Internet who are interested in creating new words to describe new ideas, new rites, new objects. And this is exactly what "crowdsourcing" is about. Forums and wikis are good examples of e-places in the e-world where crowds put their intelligence together to achieve a certain intellectual goal.
Anyone with a good idea for a new French word for that is most welcome to send a comment.
