October 15th, 2006

Lifebushido is building a global network of people working part-time from home with flexible hours using their unique talents. Steve Kantor of Lifebushido wrote Smartmobs: “One Thousand People Collaborated to Create World’s First Crowdsourced Book”

‘Why Are You Here - Right Now’ is the first book written based on the collective wisdom of one thousand people. YRUHRN announces a (free) ebook and the availability of a paperback which a crowd of people dreamed, wrote, designed, edited, marketed and published in 50 days. YRUHRN is based on hundreds of people answering the question, ‘Why Are You Here - Right Now’ via the Amazon service, Mechanical Turk.
