Cambrian House

Cambrian House defines them self as crowdsourced. They started with a simple idea in 2005, and that idea was to allow

"brilliant ideas are submitted (by you) for the community (that's you too) to rate. If an idea gets a lot of support, Cambrian House will build it with the help of the worldwide development community (there you are again). Contributors take their pick of exciting projects, and in return, they get a piece of the royalty pie (...that's money)."

Cambrian House is a part of SourceForge.org and there are currently 3288 ideas submitted.

One of interesting moves in order to thank people that pay, Cambrian House decided to feed Google 1,000 pizzas.

It was my pleasure. I found the concept of crowd sourcing interesting but not very known to the larger community.
