Value Informs What You Post

CONTENT CURATIONis the process of sorting through the vast

amounts of content on the web and presenting it in a meaningful and organized

way around a specific theme.

"Curation comes up when search stops working…[and] when people realize that it isn't just about information seeking, it's also about synchronizing a community.”

-Clay Shirky

#2 Create Sharable Content• 49% say sharing allows them to inform others of products they

care about and potentially change opinions or encourage action.• 94% carefully consider how the information they share will be

useful to the recipient.• 68% share to give people a better sense of who they are and

what they care about.• 73% share information because it helps them connect with others

who share their interests.• 69% share information because it allows them to feel

more involved in the world• 84% share because it is a way to support causes or issues they

care about.

Informational -> Relational
