Defined
"produsage - the collaborative and continuous building and extending of existing content in pursuit of further improvement. Participants in such activities are not producers in a conventional, industrial sense, as that term implies a distinction between producers and consumers which no longer exists; the artefacts of their work are not products existing as discrete, complete packages; and their activities are not a form of production because they proceed based on a set of preconditions and principles that are markedly at odds with the conventional industrial model."
differentiating products from industrial
By contrast, the 'products' of the collaborative content creation efforts which we examine throughout this book are the polar opposites of such products: they are inherently incomplete, always evolving, modular, networked, and never finished. Their process of 'production' is a process of perpetual, ceaseless, continuous update, extension, and revision which operates not according to a predetermined blueprint or design, but is driven by the vagaries of user-producer interest in and enthusiasm for fixing specific problems or extending particular aspects of the project. Its outcomes are artefacts, not products.

Project
http://www.flickr.com/groups/rollerderby/
Look at the roller derby group on flickr for evidence of these
- open participation, communal evaluation - might be in the call for adding to a group. might be in the open call to post images of the team from whatever source. Each image belongs to someone, and that owner's stream is included on the same page. that allows open participation. Communal evalution comes of comments - but I need to find some to see how that works
- fluid heterarchy, ad hoc meritocracy -
- unfinished artifacts, continuing process - check how far back the group goes.
- common property, individual rewards - shared on flickr, and individsual streams feed into one group. the reward: for the photog, thanks from others. for the subjects: being identified. Check these in comments.
