Seeking Curation Partner We have upgraded the search terms on the home page, that find tweets form the public about news.
If you spend some time on the home page you will get a feel for how the two news approaches differ. The media stream, which combines many of the major news media into one stream, is factual, but not enough activity; its a little boring. Tweets from the public, in the right hand column, are less focused but its more interesting - more frequent updates, more pictures, and some interesting comments. We would like a method to do more 'Curation' on the public's tweets, to reduce the off-topic tweets. We are seeking a Curation partner that has some experience in this area. And on the left column, for the major news media sources, we would to also do some curation to remove duplicate entries - for when two different news organizations report the same news item (and in the same way). Please Contact Us if you can help us Curate the results.
