Curation Approaches: Sprints vs Marathons

Curation Approaches: Sprints vs Marathons | Managing options | Scoop.it

Robin Good: It's true, when you create a "curated" collection, it's generally done in one of two possible approaches:

 

a) the "sprint", where due to time-sensitive issues lots of elevant items are collected in a short period of time. 

 

b) the "marathon", where relevant collection items are slowly but steadily collected over time.

 

This short article on the Bundlr blog acknowledges this typical behavior, as well as identifying some relevant examples and characteristics. 

 

Insightful. 7/10

Referral from content curation depends on context

Referral from content curation depends on context | Managing options | Scoop.it

Therese's summary: Reb Carlson show how different curation site drive different traffic: Reddit of rnews and Pinterest for eCommerce. Pinterest can't be dismissed as a fad because it drives much less referral traffic than a news curation platform like Reddit; it is 0.1% away from overtaking Yahoo§ as a source of traffic.

Pinterest Now Sending More Traffic Than Yahoo Search, Shareaholic Says | Managing options | Scoop.it

Yahoo’s slide continues with the news today that Pinterest is now sending more traffic to publishers than organic Yahoo search results.

 

That’s according to Shareaholic, a provider of social sharing buttons and widgets with more than 200,000 publishers using its tools.

 

In a blog post, Shareaholic says Pinterest was the fourth biggest traffic source in August among its publishers — beating out Yahoo organic search, which fell to fifth. Overall, Google search was the top traffic source, followed by direct traffic and then Facebook in third.
