Finally, we point out peopleuse story understanding(as described in Winston) to recognize relationships between different ideas: An idea gives a solution to an existing problem, or “closes an open gestalt,” and a cause/effect or process/goal is the simplest kind of story. For example, we understand crowdsourcing as the category of ideas where an activity that is not hard but takes a lot of time is made doable by distributing the effort among a large number of users.
