The challenge of dwindling attention spans
There’s a well-recycled statistic out there that says the human attention span has dwindled from 12 seconds at the start of the century to less than 8 seconds today. And while some people argue the legitimacy of this data point, the reality is that attention spans certainly aren’t getting any better. The multisensory nature of the internet, social media, and other digital technologies is rewiring the human brain and making it harder for people to stay focused on singular tasks and objectives – both online and offline.

Incredible resource of hard-to-find content

flea palmer's curator insight, May 21, 2014 6:31 AM

A fantastic resource comprising of artworks, essays, audio and books. You can also subscribe to the Public Domain newsletter to find out what has recently been featured.

6 surprisingly simple ways to become a more confident writer | #Blogs #Blogging #Writing #Curation | ED 262 Research, Reference & Resource Skills | Scoop.it
There’s an epidemic sweeping through the content writing industry. People are spending more time curating other people’s content than crafting their own original pieces. In a world where it’s easy to simply grab something from someone else and share it with your audience, you may be falling prey to this dangerous trend.

You may assume that convenience is the primary issue; however, a lack of confidence may be to blame.

How a lack of confidence hurts your writing
Confidence is a fickle thing. One minute, you can have all the confidence in the world and the next moment it’s gone. There are so many different factors in play and the average person has a pretty poor outlook on their potential.

“Often people think of confidence as something that the lucky few are born with and the rest are left wishing for. Not true,” business consultant Margie Warrell assures people. “Confidence is not a fixed attribute; it’s the outcome of the thoughts we think and the actions we take. No more; no less. It is not based on your actual ability to succeed at a task but your belief in your ability to succeed.”

When you look at writing, in particular, this means confidence isn’t tied to your talent as a writer, but in your belief that you can be successful. Once you look at it through this lens, it becomes apparent that a lack of confidence can have a tremendously negative impact on your efforts.

What is content curation?


Content curation. The term has been used to cover many different things. Most marketers are familiar with the practice of sharing other people’s content on social networks, what we’ll refer to as social content curation. Content curation actually covers much more than just social sharing, and can help your content marketing results in ways you don’t imagine. 

Furthermore, content curation can help other departments of your company to share knowledge or reinforce training programs.

Having the original versus curated content debate? Here's research to help you. Advantages and disadvantages of original vs curated content are presented.
Patricia Haddock's curator insight, October 4, 2014 4:51 PM

It's easier to curate content than create original content; however, original content is important since it drives your brand messaging. I recommend a mix of both.
