Robin I just watched Harlan Kilstein Interviews Robin Good on Curation. I want to say thank you. Thank you for your love of curation, your honesty and integrity. I imagined some of your references to parks and street people and I am someome who like you sees the much larger picture, but first we must set the stage. You are one of the best. If I could bestow the distinction of Master Curator on someone, you come to mind. Also looking forward to your university in the states, or in English I should say as I do not speak Italian.

Hi Ove, As you know I agree with you - curation is moving towards "collective intelligence" it's a wonderful time to expand our knowledge, build community and who knows what lies beyond the horizon.

You're welcome :)
It's interesting interesting that you mention POV and stance, as that is not something I had explicitly articulated for myself, but naturally it must be implicitly true. In that sense, it reminds me (again) that curation forces self-reflection in order to present the content better, and that can only be a good thing.

Agree with posts about curation guiding self reflection. This interview in particular is top value and two of my fav people indeed.

8. This links a series of three interviews quite lengthy but there is some insightful information for the novice in the digital information age. There is video links within the article, including a great question and answer with Robin Good on curation. The video brings a balance to this inclusion.

Hi Beth,
I agree with you, I love the feeling of community and the collective wisdom, and you know "curation resonates with me":-)

This has me thinking critically about how we are integrating social media. Inviting interaction has been a huge challenge. We are stimulating new conversations in real world time, but that's not reflected in comments and so forth. I like using Scoop.It widgets to get the newest scoop onto the bog in a timely manner and take some time to reflect on post content.

Michaela Hackner and Leah Stern have written a useful article on how to use curation to nurture the growth and cohesion of an online community.
Quality curated content is a means to enrich the community and to help it grow while becoming a natural point of reference for keeping all of its members informed and up-to-date.
From the original article: "Creating and supporting a great community is costly and time-consuming, but it can provide a fantastic opportunity for people to learn from each other and get to know each other.
...the key to a great community is great content. When a community has new and useful content that’s specific to the needs of its user base, people will keep coming back because they will see its value for their work and their lives.
Thoughtful and deliberate content curation is the best way to ensure that you can find, highlight, and share great content within your community, and help your community thrive."
Curation is support of a community must also take into serious account the specific needs and interests of the community members, placing them as the key topic drivers of the content being curated.
"Curators must be super familiar with what their audience is looking for, so they can serve that content up to users without the users needing to go in search of the right materials.
In particular, curators of online communities have to know their members, the community’s brand and purpose, and the content available in the community at any given time."
The article highlights three different approaches for curating content when you have an online community alongside a set of useful recommendations for bringing the good theories in immediate action.
Valuable. Inspiring. 7/10
