Help Me With a Google-Backed Panel Friday: On CrowdSourcing

Tomorrow I'll be moderating a panel at Stanford on a fun topic: Crowdsourcing. In fact, the central question to the discussion will be addressing answers to this partial statement: "Crowdsourcing will never work to do...."

I've got three great panelists who are going to help get the conversation started. They are NYU's Jay Rosen (more on him here), Google's Hal Varian (here), and Current TV's Joel Hyatt (here).

Jay plans to argue that crowdsourcing will never work to create new things.

Hal plans to argue that crowdsourcing will never get you an excess return on the stock market.

And Joel plans to argue that crowdsourcing isn't an easier way to do business; it's a *different* way to do business, with different processes involved and different skills required.

What I want to do here is to do a bit of my own crowdsourcing.... what do you think crowdsourcing can NOT do, and what do you make of our panelists ideas?

John Heilemann is one of my oldest and dearest pals and one of the most talented journalists in the business, so take this with a caveat, but only one that emphasizes how worth your time it will be to watch this series. Download: The True Story of the Internet is a documentary he's been working on for more than a year. And I am certain it will be masterful. More details here.
