HI Raymond, yes you are correct. But there are two big issues we need to look at. 1st – Freedom abused. In today’s world, we can create any content to help to influence people, we can also create content to attack a brand or people. That’s another influence (bad) as well. And since social media is too fast, we have another problem – judgement. People nowadays seldom to go checking if content genuine or fake, they just click share, like or retweet, etc. It is another influence (bad) as well.

It will be great when Klout and the like recognise platforms such as Scoop.it and give recognition to curators for their influence.

Thanks Raymond: great post! Guillaume here (one of the founders of Scoop.it – the publishing-by-curation platform). The inspiration for what we built is typically captured by the nobodies-bein-able-to-become-somebodiers sentence (love it btw).

Yes, we have tons of examples of users who revealed themselves and their expertise through curation. In fact we write about them regularly on the Scoop.it blog through the “Lord of Curation” series.What we found is that why more and more people understand the benefits of curation for influence, there are a couple of conditions for that to work:1. You still have to make it seamless and simple enough so that people start do it. People don’t have time to get sophisticated platforms and blogging can be impressive. Hence the need (and the boom of) for dedicated curation services.2. Everyone is an expert at something but that doesn’t interest everyone. So for curation to be democratized it needs to be placed in a topic-centric model where readers and curators can connect on specific topics isolating signal from the noise.
