I wonder if Mass Amateurization (Swype fail, tap tap tap) has furthered the obsolescence of terms like "citizen science," (the term may no longer be as special as it once was, since it happens all the time thanks to Amateurization) or made those terms more relevant (can we somehow improve on Amateurization with an eye to the strengths of existing citizen science community institutions?). Either way, one of its strengths seems to be helping science & tech when institutions may otherwise lack resources: > There is no institutional hierarchy in mass amateurization. There is only an informal group of collaborators working to solve a problem. Due to mass amateurization, amateurs are able to collaborate without the interference from the inherent obstacles associated with institutions. These obstacles include the costs that an institution incurs while educating, training, directing, coaching, advising, and organizing its members.
