StartupIO is Getting Ready to Launch

One of our good friends @kalavros has launched a new project called StartupIO that we are very excited about for two reasons.

First, we always support any initiative that aims to inform people and make their work lives better. StartupIO is a simple newsletter, delivered twice a month with curated content on all things web startups, innovation and social media. It features europe-oriented notes and content.

Second, I have been invited to write the guest post for the first newsletter! It will be short, important and about an essential skill.

Go to http://tinyletter.com/startupio, sign-up and you'll get the email by the end of the month!

The Future is Curated

We are all suffering from information overload. We have news, blog, twitter, facebook, google+ feeds and all other sort of information coming our way constantly.

For those of us that grew up at a time when receiving an e-mail was critical, letting go is not that easy. We feel that we need to consume all this information, since it's coming our way. This is why content curation is so important.

A lot of effort has been made to create services that curate and organise content for us, but there is a long way to go. Most solutions I've seen, ignore one important factor, the person.

The individual is the key for this service, and we need a solution that tailors content and information to our specific needs. Imagine how cool it would be if you woke up every morning and found the top 30 important articles waiting for you, along with the most important updates from your social networks. The future needs to be curated, what will you do about it?
