"Block babies, Upworthy, twerking, annoying friends, awful coworkers, and anything else you hate with things you'd rather see, like cats." Via Robin Good
Beth Kanter's insight:
More on filtering out the noise.

Scoop.it!
This great piece was written by Tim Kastelle - it is one of the best articles on curation, the observations and insights take this to a whole new level. So much to digest, lots to ponder about the possibilities that await us in 2012 and beyond.
Here are some of the highlights:
**"We create economic value out of information when we figure out an effective strategy that includes aggregating, filtering and connecting."
**"Filtering is what helps us deal with the vast amount of information available to us."
"...the real question is, how do we design filters that let us find our way through this particular abundance of information?
****And, you know, my answer to that question has been: the only group that can catalog everything is everybody." (Clay Shirky)
**We try to filter information so that we end up with something that is relevant to us – it helps us learn something, it helps us solve a problem, it helps us develop a new hypothesis about the world around us.
**These are all connections – and this is what really drives value creation.
**However, we can’t connect without some filtering going on. So filtering is important, and it’s a term that includes several different sub-types. I can think of at least five forms of filtering.
...we can use these ideas about filtering to help with business model innovation by changing where it takes place in the value network.
**One of Shirky’s points is that since Gutenberg, the economic logic of publishing required publishers (of books, music, movies) to act as filters in order to maximise their investment.
**As publishing and filtering has shifted out to human networks, publishers no longer need to fill this role.
**Someone (or some network) needs to, and since that creates value, it’s something that can perhaps be monetised.

Thanks for picking this up out of Robin's stream. I personally love Harold Jarche model of Seek, Sense, Share - and have adapted as a framework to help those are just starting with curation ....

"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!
