Curation works best when the curated topic is crowdsourced. This statement is based on a 2 year case study of a real world environment where a group of 70 users - used a KBucket type curation to improve findability of information.
I am of course assuming that the curator has two main objectives - Help people find information easier, educate people on what to look at.
