Crowdsourcing is a way to obtain something that uses the cumulative work of any group of people. Instead of hiring or asking an organization to do a job that requires the efforts of many people, whoever needs the work done goes directly to individuals who perform the tasks.
Crowdsourcing usually uses a website to outsource work to an online community of people. The community can be open to the public or restricted to a group of invited members, depending on the organization doing the crowdsourcing, who is called the croudsourcer.

What is Hypertext?
Hypertext is text that provides a link to other text, which can be located on another web page, on the same page, or within a document. The prefix “hyper” means that the text has additional information other than what appears to the reader. To create hypertext special formatting code is added in the text that connects the hypertext to a new document when you click or tap on the hypertext. Hypertext is also referred to by the term “hypertext link,” since all hypertext includes a link to another location.
