Google is harnessing the collective wisdom of its users to find tips on how to save money.

The new site is called “Tip Jar”. It allows users to submit money-saving tips from finance and travel to food and shopping.

The site uses Google Moderator, which is a crowdsourcing tool.  Read more about crowdsourcing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crowdsourcing

Users can vote on the tips they like; over time, the most popular and useful ones float to the top of the list.
