Harnessing The Wisdom of Crowds in TeleCommunities II: Key Concepts To Applying
There are several "dimensions" of concepts that will need to be explored to have a successful application of "wisdom of crowds" concepts.
Techniques for growing and creating an online community will need to be explored and refined.
"Social Network Security" (coined by time at http://scalefree.net) will need to be addressed, see discussion here.
A system of aggregation of local knowldge will need to be created. Semantic webs (RSS, RDF enabled, etc), "tagwebs", "folksonomies", and other collective (or "smartmob") technologies can be useful. Those technologies should ultimately aid by being incorporated in a systematic way that effectively aggregates the work of individuals in a group .
