Baratunde Thurston on Content Curation, Real-Time Search, and “Analytics Porn” – ReadWriteWeb.

The Onion’s web content guy takes on the “too much information” and “who do you assign as an important source” as issues and talks about “conten curation” as an increasingly important service. We all have to do this sort of piecemeal now, but some tools are helpful. For Thurston, the “anticipatory web” is what we have now.

Chartbeat by bit.ly is an app that will live monitor searches you designate. It puts you in the right now space, of Twitters and other sites that monitor current information.
