This week the story was crowdsourcing and whether it is good or bad. I first posted an article that provided a positive view of crowdsourcing for beginners which was quickly shot down by multiple readers. I then released a post on alternatives to crowdsourcing which is a must read. So far it’s seen a little better response and I hope the air has been cleared. This week was also special with the release of my first guest post on Inspired Magazine. It’s on Big Bold Typography so go check it out!
I also want to welcome another new sponsor to the Swirl. Find Best Web Hosting offers ratings and reviews of a large number of hosting options and we’re pleased to have them sponsor this blog. If you know someone would like to join our sponsorship team, direct them to our page on BuySellAds for more information on the available options.
