There's a fine line between content curation and plagiarism and content creators are unwittingly sabotaging the influencer relationships they hope to build.

A quand un meeting ou un groupe de réflexion, un think tank sur la curation de contenu dans l'éducation?

While there are well over 1,300 systems (LMS and subsets including learning platforms, sales enablement platforms, reinforcement learning platforms, etc.) I decided for this debut to focus on 20 vendors. I wanted to provide the “Big Dogs” on the list, so that folks where aware of those vendors and their nextgen functionality and track record, which ties to growth.

In the old days, knowledge was rare. Only teachers possessed it and to learn, you needed them to share it with you. For today's kids (and lifelong learners), access to knowledge is not an issue: the web offers unlimited knowledge to anyone with a web browser.
So as Beth Holland reflects in this post, learning changed.
And that impacts the old traditional method of taking notes to memorize and learn which also has to evolve.
She describes a system where note taking is combined with content curation to have students not simply go through the motions of learning but reflect on what they learn.

This is an interesting recap of how content curation Helps brand development and what is needed in a curation tool.
This was meant as a spec for Groupiest, a tool That unfortunately shut down on June 30 after it's initial lack of traction. But Regardless of What Happened to this tool, the premises on Which it was built still stand And what are You should look for in a content curation tool.
Actually These requirements can be Grouped in three main areas:
1. Content discovery: at Scoop.it, we've built a semantic search algorithm That Helps you discover content from an infinite number of sources (not just the RSS feeds of the sites you know) by simply entering keywords. Also We Strongly believe That no algorithm is perfect. So we not only improve increase These results by taking the actions of other users on Scoop.it That content into account but we Ultimately let users choose what to publish. Discovery is automated but not publishing as it's the opportunity to add value and exercise judgment and this is what will create a bond With your audience.
2. Content publishing: this step is not just about hitting publish, it's Also About editing your post. Beyond mere formatting, it's about adding your own message to your own voice: your insight as we call it. Bringing context adds value to your audience and Helps Establish yourself as a thought leader.
3. Analytics: getting a feedback loop is extremely Important to anything you do that you 'd like to improve increase over time. Understanding how your audience views Respond not just But Also Through reactions and conversions is extremely Important for us. Making this content loop - discover, publish, analyze - Easier and faster for Themselves efficient is what professionals and marketers look Should heir When trying to streamline content curation process.

@Jay Cross gives a detailed and clear use case of how collaborative content curation can save millions to large organizations as it saves employee time while involving them in the process. He also explains his content curation routine that he sees as a mandatory skill to be trained by modern employers. He makes a great job at connecting two sides of content curation: - the fact it's saving people's time to look for meaning in information overload themselves, - the fact it's rewarding for content curators as it helps them build their professional brands. A win-win no-brainer for smart organizations.

Where's the Web taking us in terms of content length? What's the ideal length for your own content? Tom Demers has some answers for you in this post, one of which is to "link liberally to meatier resources and let your readers chose their own adventure”. Some more observation on my end:
1. We live in a short-attention span world.
2. Long form only adds value if it's really really good.
3. Content curation is a great way to create short blog posts that have impact.

This is the write-up by ExpressWriters of the tweet chat they invited me to join as a guest host last Tuesday.
ExpressWriters is a great platform of writers, ie content creators and it was refreshing for me to see how much the debate around content creation vs curation has changed.
5 years ago when we were starting with Scoop.it, a lot of content creators were concerned about content curation: some felt it was theft, others noise. A French blogger even wrote that content curation was "de la merde" (shit in English, if you'll excuse his French).
Every innovation brings fear and concerns: just look at the many fights between taxi drivers and Uber. Most of the time for a lack of understanding as well as a resistance to change: some bloggers who had built an audience through great effort didn't want to change their habits or acknowledge that there were other ways to add value than creating 100% original content (who create 100% original content anyway? We all build on top of other people's idea and have always done so...).
Since then, many have demonstrated that you could build a large audience by adding value to other people's content. And content curation has become an accepted practice. So it was great to see such a great community of writers embrace content curation during this vibrant tweetchat!

7 Content Curation Tips from those in the Know. What they call annotating the piece, Scoop.it calls adding your "Insight" to the shared piece of content. I like to address the WiiFM factor, so the reader knows what's in it for them by opting to open and read the piece.

7 great tips on how to improve 3rd party content for curation. How to create worthwhile posts that engage and encourage subscribers. |
As I've written here on the Traackr's blog, content curation is a great first step to build influencer relationships. In short, by curating their content the right way, you not only bring them traffic but you also enrich the conversation and engagement around their content. You give before you get which makes them more likely to respond to your future requests to collaborate or getting help with sharing content.
But as @Erika Heald points out in this great post, this type of curation is not for the lazy marketers who just want a shortcut. There's a right way of doing it and mistakes to avoid (which by the way is one of the reasons to use good tools as they'll act as gatekeeper for doing ethical content curation).
It's ok to want to be efficient: actually it's probably a must. But being lazy and efficient are not the same. So here are 5 great things to have in mind when curating content to build influencer relationships.
