Ask500People is brought to you by the zesty folks at Wondermill.

In 2004 James Surowiecki wrote a best-selling book called "The Wisdom of Crowds."  The book's premise is that diverse, decentralized people voting independently are better at predicting future events or trends than individuals, small groups or even domain experts.

There are tools for surveying groups of independent voters, but they're either slow, expensive or both. We built Ask500People to gather input and opinion data in minutes instead of days, and to create a platform that other applications can integrate.
