RE: Upvoting is not curation! So I want to manually solve curation for my own purposes...

in #curation7 years ago

Also, I realize I just wrote a wishlist for the site in general, because I'm still trying to figure out how we can apply these principles as users, haha. Thoughtful, keyword-based curation posts is the best I've got right now.

Sort:  

Tags are part of the solution but a human opinion on WHY the post is useful might be more helpful.
Tags still do not help you filter quality evergreen posts. This kind of post might get out of hand quick so it might need to be split up in sub posts...

I agree, and I think your post covered that well! Tags are only the first step for discovering something new that you might be interested in. I think the personal library idea is great, especially as something you can pin in your bio.

Yes it would be great if everyone had their "hall of fame" of pinned posts.
That way you can find it easily and others looking at your profile can see what you recommend. Maybe someone can make an app that does this automatically through comments and most frequently followed authors.
