Filter Out Anything You Don't Want To See Again with Rather

Filter Out Anything You Don't Want To See Again with Rather | Content and Curation for Nonprofits | Scoop.it

"Block babies, Upworthy, twerking, annoying friends, awful coworkers, and anything else you hate with things you'd rather see, like cats."

Beth Kanter's insight:

More on filtering out the noise.

Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's curator insight, January 15, 2014 9:43 AM

"Rather looks for keywords that appear on Facebook and Twitter. This is a keyword. Well, phrase actually. The word "fuck" would be a keyword. The phrase "To hell with Republicans!" would be a key phrase. So, anyway, rather constantly scans for those, which hopefully you've specified by creating a list. Any time rather sees any of those words or phrases it kicks into action. We're not actually scanning the content of the images you see. Otherwise your CPU would get hotter than hell and the NSA would have already bought us out."

I can't wait to try this out! It would be great to be able to filter what I want to see, rather than rely on FB doing it for me & often getting it wrong!

Create Curated Expert-Filtered Top Link Lists and Categorized "Best Of" Pages with ZEEF

Beth Kanter's insight:

Lists are the heart and soul of content and content curation.   This tool allows you aggregate your lists on a topic on a page, although as Robin points out it lacks the feature of adding a one-sentence annotation.  I might just try an experiment with this as part of an upcomig workshop resource page.


One thing that often concerns me as my main work is as a trainer - and do a lot of it, is what happens when these platforms don't succeed and you loose your work?

Hi, indeed this is a risk, we will offer this download this is very good feedback. But there are not many curated directories with a real business model. Because we are going to use the links blocks on external websites (blogs) like widgets and fill them with affiliate links we give people the opportunity to make money. Most curation websites don't have any way of monetizing their traffic. Our business model is based on a dutch competitor how does 20 million of revenue only in the dutch (Netherlands) market. So if people use your subject page to make their purchasing decision you have helped them and earn some money to keep the platform alive.

Brian, white labeling is on our roadmap, but not yet implemented, what type of features would you like to see?

Zeef è una applicazione web che genera categorie e sarebbe piaciuta molto ad Aristotele e a  Kant.

 

Il suo utilizzo è semplicissimo, basta indicare il nome della nostra collezione di Link, dedicata a uno specifico tema, e quindi procedere a creare, all'interno di quel tema e argomento delle categorie, che sono rese graficamente come blocchi di liste di indirizzi. Aggiungere ai blocchi nuovi indirizzi è altrettanto semplice, basta copiare e incollare l'URL del sito o della risorsa che ci interessa.

 

I blocchi possono essere collocati nell'ordine che preferiamo semplicemente trascinandoli con il mouse nella posizione che più ci piace ed è sempre possibile aggiungere nuovi blocchi.

 

Le liste di Link possono essere condivise e incorporate in altri siti. L'utilizo di questo servizio web è gratuito previa registrazione. 

 

Si tratta di unos trumento utilissimo per organizzare i propri indirizzi in relazione a un tema/argomento specifico in modo da disporre di un archivio specifico, disponibile online, cui poter sempre fare riferimento.

 

Le applicazioni didattiche sono numerose:

1. creare archivi ordinati di risorse web su arogmenti disciplinari o transdisciplinari

2. far realizzare tali archivi dagli studenti in modo da abituarli alla ricerca delle fonti sul web

3. realizzare raccolte di risorse per l'apprendimento di una disciplina o di argomenti di una disciplina da utilizzare in ambito blended learning o flipped learning

4. Si possono creare raccolte, stile top ten, di risorse rilevanti su un dato argomento per arricchire il processo di insegnamento/apprendimento

Adding value can be as small as : what touched me in this article ? what resonates for me ? any sensible way to express your P.O.V. actually !
