"what we are trying to focus on is building a site that's optimized for those people who are news curators. For people that take joy and satisfaction out of sorting through all the stuff they read and identifying the best of that." - Newsana looks good.

While some feared that the arrival of robot story writers and editors would phase out journalists, the human touch now appears to be back in fashion..." - Human touch back in fashion for news #curation? http://t.co/uQqLSTw5 via @NiemanLab cc @bloggingportal

If only RM also read the article you link to, auto-tagged it (auto-translating it if necessary) and provided faceted search, it'd probably provide 70-80% of a Hub. Neat tool for group efforts like bloggingportal, too.

Have you read a great investigative story lately? Anyone can pitch a story, video, graphic or other news link by Tweeting us with #MuckReads

That's right - curation. Now officially Web2.0-buzzword-of-the-month (not quite sure which one).

Whenever you see something you want to Hub, just select some text and click the ‘bookmarklet’ button you’ve dragged onto your Browser’s toolbar.
