      Explore d i a p s a l m a t a (Apr 13 2010)

      My born-digital thesis was not a scholarly resource: I wasn't and never intended to present or curate a collection of digital artifacts for others to browse. My work was critical and individualistic, conscious of its methodology and ... I want to use this example to revisit Parry's question about social media -- a question that I think, now, can be reformulated as one of methodology. On the one hand, the Digital Humanities community -- the community formed around ... (Read Full Article)

      Note the big names in this early web – the companies that became extremely valuable – Yahoo, Alta Vista, Lycos, Excite. What did they all have in common? You guessed it: They all took the “noise” of the early brochureweb and filtered it for signals. By commenting on and curating all those new web pages, then declaring which were worth our time, they all became important (and highly valuable) brands on the web. They were the web’s first meta-publishers. (Read Full Article)

    5. Book Review Part V: Content Strategy for the Web–Curation vs Creation by #writingfordigital

      Explore Writing For Digital (Apr 9 2010)

      Content curators are like wiki editors who build relevant pages using recognized subject matter experts from all over the blogosphere as their sources. Done well, these pages can be highly relevant experiences, as we see from Wikipedia. Wikipedia owns top position on Google for millions of keywords for a reason. That reason is relevance. I’m not saying all pages should look and feel like Wikipedia. But the basic content strategy for aggregation should follow the Wikipedia model. What does this mean for content curators? It means you still have to build pages around your curated feeds–pages that do ... (Read Full Article)

      Explore eMedia Vitals (Apr 9 2010)

      Editors curate the authors, but they don't curate the tweets themselves, which leads to an uneven stream of informative tweets mixed with the inane. OK, so Twitter is not a hotbed of Pulitzer material – we already knew that. But it does offer a new (endless) source of content, giving your readers a sense of what’s hot – while keeping them on your website, driving more traffic, and offering more options for advertisers.

      Explore HiveFire on Content Curation (Apr 7 2010)

      In my view, news, as we have grown up to understand the concept is no longer correct in an online, always-on world. What we call “news” today has transformed and become part of the engagement story, online beyond the original definition. News is mainly an information consumption experience, not an information production output. B2B marketers who understand the influence of this new form of “news” can collect, curate, and engage with customers in a novel way. They can also secure an edge against competitors who are stuck in traditional definitions of news and marketing for customer engagement. (Read Full Article)

    13. Why the iPad Matters – Its the Beginning of the End | by Carl Frappaolo

      Explore Information Architected (Apr 6 2010)

      From my ECM-er perspective, the reason the iPad is so important is because it marks the beginning of the end of the old generation of publishing, and the popularization of e-publishing. The ability to publish electronically – not just create and layout content electronically for a paper-based print run – but content created specifically for electronic delivery, is clearly not new. But, the overall market understanding of and appreciation for the full value of electronic content delivery has been lagging.
