For this example I am first to think about the cost per path taken. Skyhook took a leap in gathering this data by actually sending out trucks across the U.S. to get information about geo location via Wi-Fi sniffing. That costs money. Google’s approach seems much less physical and more over the internet itself. Since iron is cheap (as they say) Google probably decided to implement a infrastructure for data collecting and host it alongside their vast umbrella of growing services. For Google that was the cost effective choice.

To answer which is better, it depends. To me it depends on how much the data is worth to you. Skyhook seems to value its services based on the accuracy of their data. Google seems to be just dipping its toes in the pool to test the waters before taking a dive. Since Google doesn’t rely entirely on this data it can take a more relaxed approach to data collecting.

Razume (www.razume.com) reminds me of a combined approach. They have a community that crowd sources your resume giving tips for improvement. However they also make sure that there are moderators going through resumes providing valuable contributions to someone’s resume. Their approach seems to promote user interaction with the site and provide valuable substance at the same time.
