Description
Nick Grossmann:
"A major concern with the emerging power of web platforms (especially in the collaborative/sharing space) is worker power. We are already beginning to see platforms emerge to serve workers in this environment (e.g., SherpaShare, Coworker, Peers, the venerable Freelancers Union, etc) and will see many many more here.
My belief is that “union 2.0″ will be a platform, more than an organization, and its power will derive from the data leverage it’s able to attain over the the platforms that employ its workers." (http://www.nickgrossman.is/2015/05/22/venture-capital-vs-community-capital/)
