The Expert Approach: Curators

The Expert Approach: Curators

A way to obtain relevant information with a reduced level of effort is to rely on experts. Various platforms provide content targeted to specific industriy segments, markets or topics. The user can subscribe to specific feeds based on the relevance of the topic and the trust the user has of the expert who is curating the topic.
