crowdsourcing 

n.

The practice of outsourcing a job or task that is traditionally performed by employees or a contracted company to a non-organized, usually large group of people, generally in the form of an open call or competition.

A: "I wish I could write a dictionary for all the cool slang out there, but it's too big a task for me alone, and I can't afford to pay anyone else to do it."

B: "Crowdsourcing is the solution to your problem.. I know -- you should make a website called urbandicitonary.com, or something. People will just fill it up and edit and moderate all on their own, and you won't have to pay a dime!"

clownsourcing 

the act of outsourcing tasks, traditionally performed by an employee or contractor, to an undefined, large group of clowns, through an open call.

clownsourcing depends essentially on the fact that because it is an open call to an undefined group of people, it gathers those who are least fit to perform tasks, unable solve complex problems and contribute with the most idiotic ideas.

I used clownsourcing to save on software development. I got back some code that could only have been developed by folks wearing floppy shoes and big red noses. The code even had a "do you want fries with that?" subroutine. Never underestimate the wisdom of the clown.

crowdforcing

Crowdforcing is the act of providing a product or service to the public without following existing regulations for the industry. Relies on the popularity with customers to force the hand of legislators by popular demand to "catch up" the regulations to the new "standards" established by the crowdsourcer.

Think crowdsourcing from another angle.

The Uber ar service is a prime example of crowdforcing, where regulations did not allow it's operation regionally and locally, but jurisdictions have had to "catch up" to the adapt to to popular demand.
