CURATION
Get flash to fully experience Pearltrees
David Carr, reporter and blogger of the New York Times , was the only person on the panel whose job is solely to focus on the creation of content, rather than the gathering, repackaging, and distribution of content (although David Carr is certainly active on Twitter, which many would classify as a curation tool in itself). Carr’s signature sharp wit and representation of the legacy of journalism made tangible the (sometimes playful) tension between those that create content versus those who recapture it. Those platforms that are not under the business model constraints of traditional media are able to create beautifully designed spaces for content, without the taint of paywalls or the ugly appearance of ads. Although, Mia Quagliarello of Flipboard argued that fans of Vogue magazine read for the ads as much as the article.

Part 1 of FIVE EASY PIECES: On Curation, Content as Experience and Federated Systems #ThinkState - goonth's posterous
If you think “curation” is a process by which one aggregates, filters and slaps together cool video, photos, audio and/or text, please, you can stop reading this post. Still here? Wonderful. We can think of curation in the same way museums do; a museum curator typically has a background or interest in history, archaeology and/or anthropology. The social web - a system of nodes and connectors that exhibit vibrant anthropological dynamics, both old and new - has already evolved past the element of “conversational discovery” and into various forms of real, tribal connectivity.

Last month, during Social Media Week, SMG hosted an Ignite-inspired event called Spark. I was thrilled to be one of the six speakers and chose to speak about a topic near and dear to me: Vistual Content Curation. Over the past year, visual content curation sites have been making some big waves. The most popular are Instagram, Tumblr and, of course, the new kid on the block, Pinterest.

Robin Good : CurationTraffic is a new WordPress plugin that allows anyone to curate a newsradar, a thematic channel or any other type of curated format directly from within Wordpress. The first thing that stroke me about CurationTraffic is its output template similarity with Scoop.it own magazine format. Very close. See it here for example: http://www.youbrandinc.com/marketing-news/ CurationTraffic utilizes a bookmarklet to allow the curator to pull in any content from any web page article, video or even pin.

As you are increasingly submerged by an endless flood of information, online content curators may provide a new, valuable service to anyone looking for quality information online: a personalized, qualified selection of the best and most relevant content and resources on a very specific topic or theme. Curated in real-time. When I first wrote about this , six years ago, I called this type of work newsmastering and newsradars , but now that the real-time element has come into play, as much as social media, video, Twitter and other new content sources, the original idea of what a newsmaster / content curator is and what tools and features are really needed has certainly started to change.

The universe (which others call the Library) is composed of an indefinite and perhaps infinite number of hexagonal galleries, with vast air shafts between, surrounded by very low railings. From any of the hexagons one can see, interminably, the upper and lower floors. The distribution of the galleries is invariable. Twenty shelves, five long shelves per side, cover all the sides except two; their height, which is the distance from floor to ceiling, scarcely exceeds that of a normal bookcase. One of the free sides leads to a narrow hallway which opens onto another gallery, identical to the first and to all the rest. To the left and right of the hallway there are two very small closets.
