It’s no secret that content curation is going to be the biggest marketing craze in 2017 and potentially many years after. The Internet is filling up with new information at an alarming rate, and there is simply not enough editorial content out there to organize and assimilate this information into easily understood packages.

That’s the one sentence breakdown, but there is a bit more to it than just simply collecting information.
