Why To Curate Information

• When there is a lot of something, our natural, spontaneous instinct is to organize it, group it and separate the wheat from the chaff.
• Curation helps you save time by providing easy and organized access to information and resources otherwise difficult to find and verify.
• To curate effectively you must be driven by more than just compensation.
• You need to dive and immerse yourself completely into a subject to be a subject matter expert or to become one.

• Helps people understand and learn better any subject.
• Guides interested individuals to discover and learn about a subject in greater depth by gathering and contextualizing the best information available on it.
• Save people time by bringing right into focus key stories, resources, information and tools that have already been vetted, sorted and organized by subject-matter experts.
• Facilitates discovery of new, rare to find, unknown valuable resources that could otherwise go unnoticed, especially if the information published is public and non-commercial.

Curation promotes a critical thinking attitude and a more comprehensive-holistic-organic view on any subject, instead of the simplistic black / white, true / false perspective adopted in most situations today.

It puts the human individual back in the driver's seat, electing him/her as the preferred guide to discover, investigate, and learn any subject, not by way of referring, passing on, or refining what reported by others but by actually questioning, vetting, gathering diverse voices and viewpoints into a cohesive whole.
