I was invited to give a paper on my research at Digital Impacts: Crowdsourcing in the Arts and Humanities, convened by Kathryn Eccles and the Oxford Internet Institute.
I've also posted Notes from 'Crowdsourcing in the Arts and Humanities' on Open Objects.
(My title comes from the Oxford English Dictionary's 1879 call for contributors to help them get through their backlog of words that needed sources and definitions. Yes, I do spend a bit too much time thinking about Victorian precursors to modern crowdsourcing.)
