Unit 14: Big Picture, User Participation Projects and Crowd-Sourcing

These large-scale and interactive projects  are a great way for people to collaborate together. Crowd-sourcing is great because of all the active minds contributing to a single project. It gives you many different angles when addressing the project. 

Rap Genius is a great example of crowd sourcing. People dissect song lyrics and interpret the accuracy meaning of them. There are often debates where people question the accuracy of the song lyrics as well as the meaning behind them. As you can see, the song below has contributions from 7 people all together.
