Robin's summary:
Semil Shah on Techcrunch analyzes how even light curation and social sharing tools serve increasingly individuals in "discovering" sources, ideas, people and products they do not know yet.
This paragraph struck me:
"There is too much information online, too many pages filled with stock images and no context. Search engines provide significant utility, but we still have to exert energy to find what we need after results are algorithmically surfaced. The new crop of social media companies help discovery come online and threaten traditional search. With these new tools, users are able to clip and collect the bits of the web that they are most interested in and, in the process, disregard the rest as noise."
When or if curator replace traditional search? I still use search when I'm looking for something specific - but when I'm on a hunt to track down resources for a topic I'm writing or teaching about, I go to the curators first to make sense and use search to fill in the gaps.

At what point will following the curators replace search or rather for what types of information seeking?

Hard to say. Maybe never. It depends also on how search engines will evolve and how much of a role me and you will want to play in the post-Google era. ;-)

This is absolutely true for me. I feel somewhat overwhelmed managing information for my personal blog (www.pghlesbian.com) as well as our project blog, both of which requite me to sort a significant amount of information. I find myself coming here and to other curators (as I find them - any leads on good LGBTS curators?) and feeling like my head is a little above water. Thanks!

Le philosophe invite son auditoire à prendre conscience de la révolution cognitive générée par la révolution de l'information. Pour lui, les nouvelles technologies ont poussé l'homme à externaliser sa mémoire.

Après la validation des schémas d’organisation des sites de La Chapelle et d’Aubervilliers le 14 juin, la validation du programme général au conseil d’administration de la Fondation, le 18 octobre 2011, marque une importante étape dans la progression du projet de Campus. Point d’aboutissement d’un travail collectif engagé dès le début de 2010, ce programme a été élaboré dans le cadre d’une large concertation associant plus d’une centaine de représentants des établissements et organismes fondateurs, réunis en groupes de travail, puis en séminaires. Il repose sur les « fondamentaux du Campus », qui rassemblent les résultats de cette réflexion collective et déclinent les principes de la programmation, spécialement en ce qui concerne les espaces de recherche et de formation à la recherche, et la vie de campus.

In the classical user-centered design, the user is a passive object of study, the researcher brings knowledge from theory and enrich this knowledge by the observation of the user, the designer uses this knowledge and stimulates it through technology and creative thinking, and if there is a client at the origin of the whole process, he receives the results with no need to report afterthought. With co-design, all these roles are significantly changed : Via Carol Ann BRAUN

Rupert Murdoch's tabloid runs three covers in a row attacking the movement...From the beginning, Rupert Murdoch’s New York Post was never exactly friendly to the cause of Occupy Wall Street. When the NYPD arrested hundreds on the Brooklyn Bridge in one of the watershed events of the young movement on Oct. 1, most of the media seized on the heavy-handed (and possible illegal) police tactics. The Post, on the other hand, led its story with an unnamed “Ground Zero construction worker” bashing protesters:
