Wow, this is a very thorough post Eugene. I found that content curation is a great way to add additional value to your following while increasing exposure at the same.

I'm currently involved with Scoop.it. This is a great curating site and has been responsible for sending my a decent amount of traffic over the past few weeks.

I also do curation through my weekly SEO Rebel Roundup. I love doing these. I find them to be extremely fun and it's a great way to leverage other people's content for your audience while at the same time diversifying my content.

Thanks for sharing your insights on BizSugar.com. I appreciate it!

Thanks so much for the comments! Makes me happy I joined :).

I don't think curation as a concept is necessarily new, but it's definitely taking off now. Makes sense with the amount of information people have to sift through each day. helping people find the good stuff adds a lot of value.

Content curation is becoming very hot with companies trying to market products and with many sites focused on sharing content from a particular niche. News sites, for example, with a particular point of view from Huffington Post to Breitbart are doing something very similar and arguably social networks like Facebook and Google+ are built on the same concept of content curation, allowing users to pick and share content from a variety of sources.

Eugene, I have never heard about content curation before. Every time I find a great article online, I just use the browser bookmark to keep tab of the page. Now that I know a few awesome content curation tools, reading and getting back to the amazing pages I love will be easier.
