- Paul Downey coined the phrase
- People search for things (people, programmes, music, films, places etc.) They get back documents and/or data about that thing (and links) The Web is made up of information making assertions about the world
- "Curation is the process by which aggregate data is imbued with personalised trust"
- iPlayer gives our audience the ability to catch-up on recently broadcast programmes, but not the archive.

- What probably isn’t completely obvious is that we have modeled and structured the site around those things. So we have classes of object and relationships between them, and resources within each class. For example - a Lion is a Species and species have defined relationships to habitats, location, conservation status and adaptation. What this means is that when we create a new species it appears on it’s habitat, adaptation page etc.
