Searching Scoop.It! and Making Suggestions

Okay, here comes the cool part.

If you've got some long hair, you might wanna put it up in a pony-tail at this point. Sunglasses wouldn't hurt either. LOL!

Step 3: The Keyword Search

As you likely guessed it (you genius you!) you'll first type in a keyword of your chosen niche. For this example, I'm using the keyword "SEO" as shown below:

As you can see, it will reveal the most commonly searched keywords, Scoops (curated content) and Scoop.It! members (other users).

Now, you "could" click one of the color coded topics and you'll go straight to that person or group's magazine or collection of curated content such as this:

BUT, don't do that! LOL!

As you can see in the image above, this is Bonnie Burns' Scoop.It! magazine of curated content. She's really cool (well, I don't know her, but I think she could be!) and I follow her stuff and will share it to mine from time to time.

What you wanna do with the Search function above is type the keyword in and just click Enter or the magnifying glass so that it provides a LIST of all the Scoop.It! magazines in one shot as such:

Okay, nowwww..... as you can see, we get a plethora of curated posts and much more of a variety to choose from. So, let's move on and see what we can do with this new-found mountain of niche-related resources!!! (see, that blew your hair back, didn't it? - okay, I'm bald and dreaming....)

I know, Barry! Because Scoop.It! allows the curation on THEIR website and not yours, it's totally safe!

Does this mean that I can curate on Scoop.It!, then move the new creation to my WA site?
