Thanks for this, Harold. I know I'm a bit bias, but I'd love the opportunity to clear up a misunderstanding. Scoop.it is not an aggregation platform like Paper.li. We have a suggestion engine that aggregates content, but these are only suggestions. The user is the publisher and the curator of the suggested content. We also encourage people to add their insight for each piece that they curate. We warn people against "over-curating" and say that if there's any doubt that the piece isn't relevant to their topic, DO NOT CURATE IT.

Scoop.it is exactly what you have written about -- a personal knowledge manager -- but with our technology combined with the human touch, we make this easier for people to manage the influx of information from all over the Web. Our CEO and Co-founder, Guillaume, created a presentation about this called "Humanrithm: ...How Algorithms Lost the Content Curation Battle" -- http://www.slideshare.net/guillaumedecugis/humanrithm-why-data-without-people-is-not-enough.

Please let me know if I could be of any help. I'm a fan of your work and am eager to connect with you. Thanks again, Arabella.
