Reading with a twist:Atama-ii Books
Journey to Mars,
by Paul Raine
Very short fiction: Microfiction
Microfiction II
"No Swimming", by Taylor Eaton
Everyone in town was wary about the lake. All the children knew about it. So they never played near it. And all
the animals could sense the water’s magic. So they never drank it.
There wasn’t a person in the whole county that didn’t know about the lake. But people from other towns – they
swam in it and tanned on its banks.
The locals put up signs, but nobody paid any attention. So the townsfolk did the next best thing: they waited
for the water’s spell to turn those that touched it to stone. Then they …………...
……..sold the statues.

Content curation is about:
Via Sophia B. Liu (http://www.cepis.org/upgrade/media/liu.IV.20101.pdf), 2012
Crowdsourcing: Harnessing the wisdom of crowds. Aggregating/Collecting
Organising/Customising
The call of the curator requires people who are selfless and willing to act as sherpas and guides.
They’re identifiable subject matter experts who dive through mountains of digital information and
distill it down to its most relevant, essential parts. Digital Curators are the future of online
content… Further, they don’t even need to create their own content, just as a museum curator
rarely hangs his/her own work next to a Da Vinci. They do, however, need to be subject matter
experts. Steve Rubel
