I felt like Laura Fathauer’s presentation about user-generated Content was interesting and fun to hear about. I never realize that the average person through crowdsourcing ould actually makes a rather large impact. She talked about an example of where there was a dead body of a mother’s child, I believe if I remember correctly, being found years after by someone walking their dog looking for it. User-generated content could possibly be useful to my academic career if, for say, I became a researcher d a large amount of data or human resources. This could be comedy through crowdsourcing and may benefit me if I ever do become something like that in the future. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed the presentation.
