Digital Curation
What is "digital curation"?
Digital curation describes a process of selecting and tagging information you find on the Internet. Digital curation helps you organize the links you want to save for later. Sites like Delicious and Diigo let users add "tags" to the links they save. Over time, these tags grow and allow the user to search for saved sites all tagged to topics like "math" or "classroom ideas". The great thing about social bookmarking is that you can share your bookmarks with others and they can share with you.
Other sites, such as Feedly, help you subscribe to websites or blogs that publish information on a regular basis. Once you find a blog or website you enjoy, RSS readers like Feedly can help you keep track and organize them with ease.
