A very informative and well-written post, with a wealth of information that should be part of the basic tutorials for all minnows, and beyond. I believe that many of us do not fully understand the ins and outs of curation, and while there is some spotty information here and there, as well as some vids on YouTube that touch on the issue, this is the first time I've read any in-depth posts about curation.
I'll be looking for (and forward to) more such posts.
