I don't know about you but I often don't get things right the first time.  When I start a project - a blog, or a curation project on KBucket - I start with a topic , by creating a few categories to store my curated links .

What happens next is inevitable - as I curate my ideas on how to tag and organize changes.  Often the reason is because I can not find what I curated and that tells me that the tags and the grouping are not optimal and they need to change.

Curation is traditionally defined as “The act of organizing and maintaining a collection of artworks or artifacts”.

Curators are knowledgeable about their domain and hence the ability to pick the best work for a collection based on their research and knowledge of the subject matter.

Curation has two defined characteristics – organization and maintenance - Organization implies that you can always access the collection and know where things are - Maintenance implies that you can always add or subtract items in time.
