When the crowd-sourced Wikipedia was started in 2001, its success was not obvious. Even one of its founders, Jimmy Wales, found it a little hard to believe: “It’s kind of surprising that you could just open up a site and let people work.”
但是，任何这类组织技术都会犯错，需要实验法。当众包的维基百科（Wikipedia）于2010年上线时，他的成功绝非显而易见。甚至其创始者之一吉米·威尔斯（Jimmy Wales）也认为有点难以置信：“你就是开个站点，然后让人们工作，这真是有点令人惊奇。”
