Hacking mobile phones to “create” a story, using user-generated media, crowd sourcing? How do these techniques and sources impact the creation of content in comparison to research by more traditional methods as used by the major research houses? How does the content we, and our users, view and use to make business decisions get created? How can we be sure it meets our expectations and has credibility and integrity in today’s über-connected world?
