    Lessons on content curation from the shadow world of intelligence gathering Content curation, reduced to its most basic functions, is a process of filtering and reporting. What we extract, from where, at what frequency, and to who or whom we deliver our results all depends on our objectives and abilities.

    The Curate and the Curator: Part 3 of 5 Part Series on Content Curation by @kissane The previous two posts in this series discussed the notion of content curation as it relates to “real-time curation” and the filtering/mosaic method of online content production. I’ll be adding on a related post with examples of what I consider to be especially useful and successful examples of that genre, but first, I want to look at another kind of content curation—one that I think is vital to the work of content strategists.

    Is Content Curation anything like Museum, History or Library curating? We say Yes. Therefore, to compare social media and museum or library curating we should ask: Do social media curators conduct research around specific topics? Do social media curators select the best information, around these topics, and then organize this information into relevant collections? Do social media curators represent curated, social media in a particular narrative that highlights the relationship and relevance between each artifact of information? Finally, do social media curators then present their collections to share with the public?

    As noted extensively elsewhere, there has been a bit of a kerfluffle about the use of the term “curation” to refer to “real-time” filtering/link selection. Before we turn to the world of professional curation, I want to take a moment to acknowledge that we, the web-making industry, have been pretty careless with the term in ways that have—understandably, I think—got up some curatorial noses.

  14. 'Quality' in the age of social media: is it only in the eye of the beholder? Arguments continue in curation!

    Explore Article Great Lakes THAT Camp (Mar 18 2010) Science , Social Media

    Particularly in fine art contexts, we see a lot of tension between the expertise of the curatorial/museum voice vs. the ‘citizen curator’ and crowdsourced content. Although ostensibly an advocate for a ‘social media’ kind of curatorial practice, I have been fascinated to find that I’m not immune from this conflict: at times I find myself coming down, rather awkwardly, on the side of ‘quality’ and the curator’s authority.

    Curation: The End of Content Aggregation As We Know It When it comes to the problems plaguing digital publishers, a museum is the last place one would think to look for solutions. However, there is a growing movement asserting that journalists and museum curators have more in common than meets the eye. After all, museum curators, like journalists, are often tasked with condensing complicated subjects into easily digestible and enjoyable exhibits.

    As existing practices evolve and new ones emerge it often takes time for the way in which we talk about them to settle down. There may be some interim terminological confusion. This has happened in our world with 'archive' for example. And so with curation, we see something of the same.
