The idea of content curation has been bandying about for a while now. AMC keynote Gary Ross touched upon it, regarding the work that magazine editors already do. Or should be doing.
And it only makes common sense. The whole point of magazines is to curate--to discover ideas/trends/information and make sense of them for their readers.

And that role should be an expert one. Why let just anybody on Pinterest be the expert in your field?
