Managing Content Through Curation

Pawan Deshpande, CEO of Hivefire, tells WebProNews that inbound marketing all starts with content. Creating content can be a challenge from blogs, press releases and podcasts, but that’s where content curation comes in. Deshpande says Content curation is the process of identifying, organizing and sharing relevant content on a specific topic or issue. Identify third- party content from blogs, social media, news articles about the specific topic or issue. You want to find the most relevant content, than organize it and share it. Deshpande talks about his content curation platfrom Curata , a B2B online marketing and content curation solution. http://videos.webpronews.com/2010/10/managing-content-through-curation/

CURATING THE FUTURE | Nation Performing Arts Convention

http://performingartsconvention.dreamhosters.com/technology/id=274 Like e-mail in the ‘90s and the web at the dawn of the new millennium, artists and organizations—as a matter of business—have had to adapt to these new modes of communication and integrate these tools into their operations. Web 2.0 and social platforms like Digg and Delicious, YouTube, Flickr, and Facebook have pushed the electronic envelope even further up the learning curve. Along comes Twitter, and the real-time revolution is on—just as mobile technologies have gone viral. The speed of new development presents challenges—for technologists and luddites alike. But whether you’re a traditionalist or a ‘new mediaist,’ [1] future audiences are growing up with these technologies, [2] and eventually, the arts, like every living thing, must adapt or die.

7 New Startups That Could Affect Your Marketing Strategy | Network Solutions Small Business Blog

I don’t think any of us could have predicted how integral Facebook, Twitter, blogs, Digg or other social media sites would be for a company’s marketing strategy. As a former employee of a high-tech startup, I’m always in awe of the creativity that forward-thinking young entrepreneurs pour into new ventures. And because I’m a small business owner, I’m always interested in learning about new companies that could affect how I market my business.

http://scobleizer.com/2010/03/27/the-seven-needs-of-real-time-curators/ I keep hearing people throw around the word “curation” at various conferences, most recently at SXSW. The thing is most of the time when I dig into what they are saying they usually have no clue about what curation really is or how it could be applied to the real-time world. So, over the past few months I’ve been talking to tons of entrepreneurs about the tools that curators actually need and I’ve identified seven things. First, who does curation? Bloggers, of course, but blogging is curation for Web 1.0.

Content Curation: Why Is The Content Curator The Key Emerging Online Editorial Role Of The Future?

What is content curation and why is it so important for the future of web content publishers? The content curator is the next emerging disruptive role in the content creation and distribution chain.
