Tech Ideas From Twitterland

David Pogue has published an interesting article about the usefulness of crowdsourcing (→ Tech Ideas From Twitterland). Using electronic gadgets as an example, he shows, how you can use Twitter to collect requirements.

Crowdsourcing uses information from many people to create a product, or a service (Wikipedia as an example). On www.produkt-manager.net you find information about the crowdsourcing under the following link: http://www.produkt-manager.net/tag/crowdsourcing/.

When using crowdsourcing, you need to be careful with very sophisticated products. In this category, the number of participants might not be large, and it might be important that your requirements originate with experts. The Twitter-approach from above might thus have limitations in terms of the product, which you plan.
