In the coming days, weeks and months, we will be discussing "crowdsourcing" and what it means and how it can benefit our newsroom in small-to-medium markets that we serve.
Here are some links to start your minds thinking about this subject:

These links are just to get the engine started... You will be seeing a much larger and broader emphasis on crowdsourcing on this blog and in ACM's content strategy moving forward.
Have a great weekend!
