Are you creating value or noise?

I've always wanted to know the difference, if there was any, between content curation and content marketing, and I found it! I found out there is a huge difference between the two and even though they sound like the same things, they are not. This article is such an easy read if you have extra time on your lunch break or on the bus to work!

Content curation is looked at as easy and effortless but actually is more time consuming because you have to go through site after site, and infographic after infographic to look for the perfect ones for your intended audience.

The media industry is just one blurred line. Every subject and specialty overlaps at least a tiny bit with another. However, though content curation and content marketing are frequently seen as synonymous, they are distinctly different.

This article details that there are so many aspects of content curation to consider and tools that can make each of these more managable and the process more efficient.

Here is the idea: "The drive for offering ‘more’ is not always the best path.

It does not always create something unique. It does not always better serve a target audience. It does not always differentiate you from the competition. It does not always offer something that can’t be found elsewhere. It does not always solve a problem, or fulfill a desire."

Collecting and regurgitating all of the news that "appear" to be relevant may not be such a great idea after all.

"With unlimited server space and free distribution, the temptation can be too great to share AS MUCH content as possible, with the theory that they are better serving the many sub-niches of their market. In other words, you may often see less curation, and more collection."

I don't know if I'd be so generous to label "collection" this uncontrolled regurgitation of content with little real vetting and verification (let alone curation), but Dan Blank, has an interesting story about curation and collectors that I woud not hesitate to recommend reading.

There are some good insights in it.

One of them rings like this: "...collecting behavior is to collect AS MUCH of something as possible, and not curate or edit their collection at all."

Indeed I see many supposed curators doing exactly this.

Because, as Dan writes correctly "...with unlimited bandwidth and free distribution channels with digital media, it can be sooooo tempting to post more and more content, aimed at more and more target markets.

Plus, the temptation to seem as large as possible, and to give Google as much content as possible to crawl for all of those searches."

But there's a lot more valuable stuff and insight to get by reading in full the original story (even if it was written in 2010).

Insightful. Truthful. 8/10
