I am exploring various curation tools and trying to find the best mix.

I completely agree with you that the role of the CM itself will diversify. It will happen almost without intent initially and will then evolve in the ways you have mentioned. My fear is that while marketing is beginning to consider content strategy as one of the keys to attracting customers, within the enterprise the need is not yet clearly defined. I do believe that curators--they may come from anywhere in the enterprise but most likely to be CMs--will bridge the gap and spot the pattern between disparate information. This role will increasingly become important--whether officially recognized or not--as these folks will be the ones to spot emerging trends, patterns in exceptions, edge cases that could be important to the core...you get my point. I don't yet know how many organizations will see the importance of such a role in their business strategy but eventually they will have to. Else, too much valuable insight, knowledge and lessons and learned will pass by leaving nobody any wiser.Sahana Chattopadhyayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09533308240409984953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9219053459653631458.post-82314127883892830302012-02-21T06:53:07.200+05:302012-02-21T06:53:07.200+05:30Sahana, Better late than never on my comments her...Sahana, Better late than never on my comments here. You did very well in curating a valuable piece on curation itself. I was particularly drawn to your comment "They may or may not be officially conferred the title of curators. But the need is irrefutable." This is a critical point as in the short-term I see few midsized orgs creating a job description for this role and yet, the ability to do it and have it done will be critical. I whole-heartedly agree that Community Manager(s) will be undertaking this position almost unconsciously and likely with little recognition for their work. You also hint that it will be "folks" doing this work (plural). I see 2 types of CMs evolving. One more focused on the content and making content more understandable/digestible..the other focused on the community beyond the content. For example, here in the states we see two sportscaster in the booth during sporting events - one sportscaster provides the facts, an expert who can see and anticipate what the audience will want to know. The other, the color commentary, one who provides the emotional angle so key for connection to the event as a whole.
