SocialMediaDesign

53% of Social Media is about Tech, Travel and Food (sounds like a Talking Heads song :).

probably true, but so unbelievable! 

Interesting video with this.

Stuff you'd love to have on your Website!

This is some great editing.

Beautiful!

Herramienta similar a Pinterest pero de marcado caracter educativo, nos permitirá buscar, seleccionar, organizar y compartir contenidos de cualquier tipo (texto, imágenes, vídeos...) en tableros visuales.

Another new eLearning tool

Curation seems to be the new challenge/opportunity.  I appreciate the influx of tools, but have to admit my head is spinning from the sheer volume.  Sensemaking?

Have a look at Robin Good's extensive comments about Ping.it. They are very helpful and detailed.

This is a great idea although I don't see where, from just reading the description of what it does, where it's any different than Reel Surfer or Keeeb or probably even a few others. 

There's no doubt, however, that curating and aggregating video content can be a beneficial service to lots of niches.....etc. specific styles of cooking, auto repair, golf tutorials, dancing (e.g. videos on 'cross body lead').

I'll definately subscribe to the site and try it out.  I'll sell you what I wish I cold find:  I wish I could find a tool that made it really easy to insert notes that would display at specific points in vidoes.  A lot of times I see videos where most of it it not interesting but a certain portion of it is.

CratePlayer è una web app o un webware, come preferite, che consente la creazione di compilation audio e video dai numerosi social network e social media del web (youtube, vimeo, dailymotion, ecc.) e dai vari siti web. E' possibile farlo anche attraverso un apposito bookmarklet che consente di catturare il video desiderato in modo molto semplice.

E' inoltre possibile, per ogni raccolta creata, inserire una caportina, predisporre una descrizione, aggiugnere dei tag, configurarla come privata o pubblica, condividerla (Goggle+, Facebook, Twitter, ecc.), incorporarla.

Molto utile per la didattica in quanto consente di creare raccolte di video e/o audio da fonti diverse e su un deterimnato tema / argomento da fornire agli studenti per approfondimenti e per lo studio, senza dover fornire loro lunghe liste di  link. Utile anche come esercizio da far svolgere agli studenti fornendo loro un tema sul quale ricercare fonti audio e video da oprganizzare e integrare in una raccolta

Typeform is a new web app which allows you to easily edit, create and publish professionally-looking interactive forms and surveys on any website, while guaranteeing full compatibility with all desktop and mobile devices.

If you want to "listen" to your fans, customers and readers, this is a great tool to make it all happen.

As a matter of fact, Typeforms work across all computing devices: from desktop PCs, to tablets and smartphones and can include all types of questions, from yes/no to multiple choice to free form answer. There is even a "Dropdown question type" which allows you to add as many options you want to this customizable drop down menu.

To create a new interactive questionnaire, input form or survey, you only need to drag and drop, your selected type of questions onto your empty form canvas.

Nonetheless all newly created forms have by default a professionally-looking design, it is also possible to customize their look by selecting specific colors, fonts, backgrounds or by choosing among several readily available design themes.

Other key features include the ability to embed any newly created form or survey onto any website or blog.

It is also possible to personalize typeforms by passing data into your typeforms and by appending variables to the URL. Great for greeting your users by their first name or passing hidden data along to your results.

Free to use.

Ditto is a FREE, automated weekly backup of Twitter, Facebook and Gmail with integrated search capabilities.

To curate, means also ability to archive, preserve and safely store the data/information/content available in your newsradar/collection/lineup. As a matter of fact, if you decided to follow-up on an academic pursuit of your data-curation interests, you would be immediately confronted with the learning of the best methodologies, tools and workflows utilized to preserve and archive digital data.

In addition, given the times we are in, and who controls our data, you can never know what happens next, and whether you are always going to be able to access both your account and the data that's in it.

For these reasons I think it is relevant for anyone involved in professionally managing content / data, such as a content curator does, to have the ability to easily and automatically backup all of his Twitter / Facebook data as well as his own Gmail.

With Ditto, you can export all of your backed up data from Facebook, Twitter or Gmail, into a handy PDF file.

Free to use. (max 3GB of archive space can be used - if you leave out your Gmail, that's plenty of space.)

Daunting, but probably the direction in which we need to go.
