Craig Newmark is intrigued by the idea of editors as “curators” of new journalism. Sound pretty high-brow, but the concept has some resonance. What happens, though, when the audience collectively does its own selection? Is that mass curator-ship?

Interesting concept. We’ve had a job posting up for a “curator-in-chief” for over a year. Haven’t found the right one yet, but when you don’t pay salaries, you’re pretty selective 😉

Dan, why is Criag Newmark the subject of your lede rather than the promulgator of the term– NYT publisher Arthur Sulzberger?
It’s not a particular interesting point to me; he is not doing a disambiguation or combination of terms. He’s making an analogy, but I can’t see this as news to anyone familiar with journalism.
mass-curatorship, mass-editorship — neither word really jumps out.
