Is curation the new normal?

Digg launches new algorithm with 'Newsrooms' | Digital Media - CNET News:

"Here's how it works:

• Sourcing: We locate great content for each topic and display in a real-time feed called "Newswire."

• Signals: Stories are ranked automatically by an algorithm that looks at recency and popularity including Likes on Facebook, Tweets and LinkedIn sharing, to name a few.

• Curation: The news is then filtered by the Diggs and Comments of passionate users who have gained reputation as top influencers in each Newsroom topic."

I love the way we create new functions for old words. I have one: hifaluting for curation. Sometime I will do something on how the computer became the new car.
