    I was thinking about this last night, and I think it's easy to get caught up in new trends and buzzwords in our industry. "Crowdsourcing" etc. After reading some of Matt's blog, I don't think there was any deliberate attempt to undermine designers. After all, Aquent depends on people like us for their business.

    I do think this idea in a larger sense - pulling together creative ideas from a lot of people at once - has a place. But we need to find a way to compensate people fairly too. Not sure how we achieve both ends right now. The 99 designs model is kind of like throwing a piece of meat into a cage of hungry rabid dogs.
