So Mike, my webmaster, pointed me to an interesting story around Google’s foray into the 411 information/listing business.
While I don’t fear the same fire and brimstone that the VC writing the post does, I think it is an innovative and brilliant execution of the crowdsourcing concept (like Mechanical Turk).
On that note, be sure to also check out the story behind Google’s Image Labeler originally developed as the ESP Game.
