| Concept of Content Curation |
Content curation is an art of
compiling information from a variety of sources and presenting them in a
creative manner in front on your audience. Content curators compile the already
available information from a variety of resources scattered around the web and
compile them together in an organized fashion before their audiences. The
curated content form a bunch of related content and satisfies specific user
tastes. One may curate content on Cinema and gather the available content from
the web together and all the cinema loving audiences might visit the content
channel to find all the related information organized creatively in one place.
