Crowdsourcing in the House

How can you tell when crowdsourcing has hit the mainstream? When it’s featured on one of TV’s hottest shows. “House, M.D.” is about a doctor whose specialty is diagnosing unusual diseases. Each week’s episode features a patient presenting with unexplainable symptoms who requires tests and treatments until the diagnostic team finds the real disease. This week’s episode followed this pattern, but with one exception.
