I would say it's more of a replacement for Symbaloo or other bookmarking tools.

I would agree with Susan's comment. I think it is something to try instead of Netvibes.

I think like all curation tools, you need to find what works for you. If you have time investigate the next thing if not, stick with what you know.

Looking at the infographic, it clearly reminds me about the start of "Enterprise Data Warehouse": failures by "Innacurate scope", "Technical Roadblocks" & "Siloed data and no collaboration". It looks so familiar. 
Tony Agresta's curator insight,

Very interesting infographic. Why do they fail? For all of the reasons above and then some... Over 80% of the data being collected today is unstructured and not readily stored in relational database technology burdened by complex extract, transform and load. There's also pre-existing data, sometimes referred to as "dark data" that includes documents which need to be included and made discoverable for a host of reasons - compliance and regulatory issues are one. Log activity and e-mail traffic used to detect cyber threats and mitigate risk through analysis of file transfers is yet another set of data that requires immediate attention.
Social and mobile are clearly channels that need to be addressed as organizations continue to mine data from the open web in support of CRM, product alerts, real time advertising options and more.
To accomplish all of this, organizations need a platform with enterprise hardened technology that can ingest all of these forms of data in real time, without having to write complex schemas. Getting back to the point - What do most projects fail? If companies attempt to do this with technology that is not reliable, not durable and does not leverage the skills of their existing development organization, the project will fail.
We have seen this time and time again. MarkLogic to the rescue. With over 350 customers and 500 big data applications, our Enterprise NoSQL approach mitigates the risk. Why? Our technology stack includes connectors to Hadoop, integration with leading analytics tools using SQL, Java and Rest APIs, JSON support, real time data ingestion, the ability to handle any form of data, alerting, in database analytics functions, high availability, replication, security and a lot more.
When you match this technology with a world-class services organization with proven implementation skills, we can guarantee your next Big Data project will work. We have done it hundreds of times with the largest companies in the world and very, very big data.

This is a great infographic - it shows that whilst everyone is doing it (it being "Big Data" - whatever that is...), talent is rare, technology is hard to find and the projects never end. A far cry from the speed with which companies such as the BBC deployed MarkLogic to serve all data for the sport websites through the Olympics. Now that was big data, delivered by a talented team in a short space of time. Delete the scoop?

Social nets work on the same dopamine receptors as slot machines. Addictive? You Think? LOL, we will figure a way to balance them out when startup entrepreneurs create a new generation of tools sure to wrest control back from THEM to US. Until then realize that jolt you keep feeling isn't real as much as it is PLANNED and MODELED :).

I've written extensively about this topic. I'm reviewing these tools in my upcoming book, HireFriday 3.0. The fact is this: infograpic resumes aren't just for artists, photographers, and musicans anymore.
Resume templates, and infographic resume formats are not new. What is new is that some of the services can now take your LinkedIn Profile and turn it into an infographic in one fell swoop.
It makes sense to check these services out. If you can leverage all of your social networks to jump start your job search, you absolutely should.
I've tested vizualize.me, re.vu, Kinzaa, Visualize.ly. Some of these tools are simple to use. Some are difficult if you don't write code.
See my previous post about this. I recently interviewed the founder of re.vu. Stay tuned. In the meantime, subscribe to the HireFriday Daily, this blog, and stay up to date on the latest career search technology.
Your career search pal,

Absolutely a huge trend. Recent NRF show in NYC, curated commerce was very popular topic. Not only are brands and websites positioning themselves, newcomer companies are starting to prepare platforms to facilitate the creation of curated commerce. For example, Dell unveiled a special curated commerce project that will provide the platform for others to enable curated commerce on their website.

Fashion SKU curation is the solution to reduce consumer anxiety: A search for ‘black dress’ in Clothing & Accessories on Amazon.com brings back 65,529 results! For consumers, this large number of choices can lead to confusion, exhaustion and dissatisfied purchases, or worse, no purchase at all."
