What is crowdsourcing? According to Wikipedia Crowdsourcing is a term coined by Wired magazine writer Jeff Howe and editor Mark Robinson. Crowdsourcing relies upon unpaid or low-paid amateurs who use their spare time to create content, solve problems, even do corporate R & D.
But, what YRUHRN has done, has used crowdsourcing to write a book. We have given over 500 people a voice that can be heard around the world. By using crowdsourcing and the unique talents of close to 20 work at people, most of those being stay at home mothers, YRUHRN will turn a simple idea into an amazing book that will appeal to people of all kinds.
