Social technologies are becoming the preferred mode of communication of new generation, new technologies prevail in government and business communication, generating collective ideas is one of the methods in technologically related communities to create collective knowledge, solve problems and initiate innovations. In spite some risk related to control and diversity as well as legal issues, use of Collective Intelligence could potentially benefit society in a wide variety of domains. Practical implications – better understanding of theoretical assumptions could influence more reasonable application of social technologies in practise. Originality/Value – this paper presents useful conceptual and holistic understanding of risk and opportunities by developing Collective Intelligence on the basis of social technologies.
