Content curation helps in defining a niche target audience and providing content relevant to their needs.

It saves valuable time and effort of the online users in searching for enormous amount of information on the web.
Content curation is the best method of providing purposeful information that may be extremely useful to the readers in addressing different issues.
Rather than looking at a variety of sources, they can get all the valuable information under one roof that can be immense value for companies.
Besides, it helps them to discover and find all the latest information about your products and services and encourages them to make a final purchase easily.

Please note that the author of this original post, Shobha Atre, uses images stolen from other web sites, (the one appearing here is an image I have bought and personalized myself with those titles) without providing any credit or attribution. How can this person be a reliable curator if sHe behaves in this way?

Hi robin,
Thank you for pointing this out, I had no idea she used a stolen image in this piece. Will leave this up so you see my response. Taking it down tomorrow, not tweeting it. I don't support anyone who does this. Delete the scoop?

In this graphic PHP is mentioned but Java? Okay nowadays Java is on the backfoot but not mentioning it at all is a bit to hard, IMO. Java has to die to make room for new language concept, but hidding the fact it had long time ago influences is not fair, IMO. Okay enough Java love for this year. Lets find another blog post to rant against Java :-)
