Hi all.... I've been doing some investigating of content curation over the weekend, and I have found that there is a LOT to learn. Any thoughts on the best sources to learn about doing content curation the right way? I can't really tell who is actually successful at doing this as opposed to who is just teaching about it.

I also looked at things like Curation Soft and Curation Traffic (theme). I love the idea of being able to easily grab content and add my own thoughts (not just massive adding of links, etc). Any thoughts on software to make the process of curating easier? Not automated - just easier.

Any information is greatly appreciated!

    Hi Charity

    Setting up Google Alerts for your keywords springs to mind?

    There are many sources you can use

    YouTube
    Article directories
    Your local library

    are just a few that spring to mind.

    Yes, there is an awesome, free Wordpress plugin called Insights by Vladimir Prelovac of SEO Smart Links fame that is an excellent tool for curation.

    I have Curationsoft, and I like this plugin just as well--maybe even better.

    Don't ignore zemanta, which has a WP plugin.

    Thanx Norma Rickman for mentioning Insights, which is a winner!

      You could hire a part time outsourcer. May be that person could work 1 day a week to create the curation content for the whole week and schedule the posts in a drip feed maner.

      Why was your signature file linking to a domain owned by someone else?

    My best pick is CurationSoft, Its drag n' drop feature makes it easy for you to post the selected article into your blog and it is compatible to most blogging platform. Just type in your keyword and it will give you a huge list of blogs related to it, even videos, news and twitter. No need to browse other sites

    I have been using Google Alerts before, its fine but its a little time consuming.
