Why Crowdsource and What is Automation?
Even if you don't get the right answer, asking the room can help find the right path to an answer. Using a Google Form to ask the crowd can help shape a conversation, collect data about what people know, or simply to understand the intentions, expectations and desires of the crowd.
Google Forms turn any data collector into a crowdsourcing expert. Forms can help you ask many types of questions and collect several different sets of data. What you do with the data you collect just got easier with Google Forms add on automation features such as Doc Appender and Form Publisher.
Automation with Forms can be grouped into three categories:
Automatically organize data while it is being collected
- Use Choice Eliminator to remove a question once it has been selected
- Use Row Call to sort all the incoming data automatically by a given indicator such as name
