Abstract

Crowdsourcing is a new paradigm for utilizing the power of "crowds" of people to facilitate large scale tasks that are costly or time consuming with traditional methods. Existing crowdsourcing markets, however, are often accessible to crowd in public with the traditional task-oriented definition. In this paper, we demonstrate We Crowd, a We Chat-based mobile crowdsourcing, which enables social network to crowdsourcing. That is, requesters can fully enable their We Chat-based social network to participate and accomplish their crowdsourcing tasks on the phone, and some funny features like lucky money and competition are employed for the better participate and interesting.
