RE: Curation - The Magic Sauce of Steem?

in #steem5 years ago

In all the time I've been here, no one has adequately explained curation
As the term is used here in steemit and associated dapps.
In my mind, the WORD curate, brings to mind the image of someone
who works for a museum, searching for artifacts to place in the museum
For safekeeping.
So in my mind, here that would be me resteeming posts by others.
Someone recently said it was that, but also upvoting. And also
commenting.
So what is it? I've never understood the "rewards" button in my
Wallet:

What does that signify?
In essence, I came here to post my writings, to get paid for it, for it to
Be safe from poaching (the blockchain is forever, right?)
So would you please help me bring these things into some sort of
Coherent whole @therealwolf?

Sort:  

@jerrytsuseer, I agree big time with your appreciation of the WORD curate/curation and basically everything else you've said here in your comment.

Someone recently said it was that, but also upvoting. And also commenting.

Oh, it was probably me, the one who could have said 'that". Well, it could also have been someone else. But I've already said this so many times, that I would not be surprised if it could be about me to whom you refer. :)

What does that signify?

Haha, yeah!! I think I'll also sit here waiting to listen that sort of Coherent whole answer from @therealwolf. };)

ha ha ha. I'm glad I've found a "kindred confused spirit" @por500bolos
Good to know I'm not the only one. 😎
