Why Curate?
Organic reach of Facebook Page posts is less than 2% of your Likes. (@Ogilvy)
According to @Moz, the “shelf life” of a tweet is just 18 minutes.

Curation isn’t:AGGREGATION
Hoarding makes it hard to
find what’s valuable.
Biggest offender: Brands

Curation isn’t:ARCHIVING
Don’t make your audience work hard
to find the narrative.
Biggest offender: Twitter chats

Curation:
Items are chosen by an expert - you!
Take care in how content is arranged.
Provide context; build a narrative.
Valuable experience for the audience.

What do we mean by Care?
Quick questions to ask while curating:
’Why am I including this?’
‘Is there a better source of info?’

What do we mean by Context?
As the content specialist, what info can you add? • Event itinerary • Outline a Twitter chat’s Q&A • Links and “Learn More” opportunities

Tips and Questions
• Diversify your sources
(Twitter only tells part of the story, and almost everything is embeddable. See embed.ly)
• Take shortcuts to good content
(Twitter Lists, Subreddits, Geolocation, Verified users, Advanced search)
• There’s always something to curate
(Even if no one’s talking about you, they’re talking about the problem you solve)
• When appropriate, close the loop with contributors
(Look for curation tools that have notification or request options built in)
