in Leading Arab Job Site Bayt.com Crowdsource New Design Online on StartUpArabia
I don't know. This sounds somewhat lame to me.

Would you catch Apple doing this? Or BMW?

Companies with reputations for great design don't go around posting $500 contests for people to submit "cool designs".

Are they looking for better eye candy? Or are they looking for some real design thinking that solves problems and engages users.

Crowdsourcing can be useful. Maybe as research tool. But not as a way to generate great design.

With just 1 day to go for the contest, I didn't see any outstanding design work among the 10 entries they got.

what is your definition of "young". Is it people who were 10 years old when berlin wall fell?

I think you know what I'm talking about..

Maybe you have been too hasty with your accusations. Despite the delays, the Lebedev people seem to be making progress.
