    Personally, I'm not a big fan of content curation because ideally you want to develop your own voice online.

    Occasionally, I'll link to an external article from inside my own blog posts if it's related and adds additional value to the reader.

    Thanks
    Kerry

      Kerry is right

      Curated sites are difficult to make work as you have to feed in loads of content and you need to have some really good stuff to do it. The only other way you can make it work is to give your own interpretation on certain stories and then curate the rest but I have not touched that side of things.

      Make sure that your audience is correct and you have a very good site for easy reading and usability. Good luck if you are going to do it.

    Do you mean actually posting your content on them? If so, then there is definitley a benefit especially if you are posting quality info that people are going to find interesting or trendy.

    Others like StumbledUpon are renowned for bringing in loads of traffic so its a good idea to get your content out there and onto those sites.

    Not to mention the SEO aspect...
