Imagine what would happen if you spent 0.1% of your time adding value to the other 99.9%. Picture an environment where your experiences don't just happen to you, but are used to make big things happen for you. Could you harness an otherwise overwhelming world of endless information, gratifying moments, and dizzying possibilities? How much social currency could you create if you knew how to capture, organize, and share anything to improve everything? The open secret is that curating your entire existence - or Experience Curating as rising author Joel Zaslofsky calls it - is just as powerful today as it was 2,000 years ago. "Experience Curating" isn't just about Zaslofsky's unique FAOCAS framework and how to reap its rewards with your favorite tools. It's a three-part blueprint to achieve your own brand of success, complete with real-world case studies from Evernote, The Huffington Post, and even the Brothers Grimm. Through Experience Curating, you'll learn how to embrace your curating gifts to: 1) Simplify your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual landscape. 2) Enjoy faster, tastier, and healthier food. 3) Become an expert and go-to community resource in any topic. 4) Gain more freedom by breaking out of the Internet's "filter bubbles." What you use your curated experiences for - making money or personal finance mastery, improving your relationships, truly useful to-do lists, or world domination (for instance) - is up to you. You can join countless others to push the boundaries of your potential. You can constantly prove that your existence is meaningful. And you can unearth the timeless and specific steps to convert your curating currency into social, intellectual, or physical capital. All it takes is some simple and intentional Experience Curating.… (altro)

I appreciate Zaslofsky's mission, especially in a world where we are bombarded with information, but I can't drink the kool-aid on his plan. In Experience Curating, Zaslofsky tries to convince us that we all need to ultimately write more stuff down, spend time sorting and filtering and archiving, because the world needs our curated "things" for the good of humanity and furthering knowledge everywhere. I have a hard time believing that this takes little time from his life, especially when he is trying to make this his career! It is somewhat subtle, but this entire book (more like long form essay) is a pitch for why you should pay him money for what he is doing, hire him to curate something, and boost his own ego about why his way of doing something in spreadsheets is superior.

Maybe I'm not the target audience, but I suspect I fall in the market he is trying to reach, and this book was not useful to me. I am suspicious of anyone who keeps an entire spreadsheet of inspirational quotes as being much of a real self-help guru, and I failed to take away any meaningful practices or value in my life from his system. If you want to simplify your life, you don't need to build spreadsheets and track every experience, and cull and filter the information you take in for easy access later. That in my opinion is making your life even more embargoed by information bloat. If you're goal is to become a witty anecdote expert at cocktail parties, then maybe Zaslofsky's system is for you! ( )

I don't usually go for self-help type books, and this title is touted as such. That said, this is no ordinary self-help book, in that it is simply offering a way to aggregate important information which will simplify many aspects of life, depending on the desired outcome. As an Archivist/Librarian, I found the techniques covered here to be interesting, and easily doable. In fact, I plan on starting my own spreadsheet in order to archive a couple of my life-long interests. I recommend this book to anyone who would like to gain control over information that is important to them.

I was sent this eBook through the LibraryThing Member Giveaways group in exchange for an honest review. ( )

This book achieved its purpose; it got me excited about developing a personal system of keeping track of the things that are important to me, and gave me insight as to the importance and benefits of doing so. I enjoyed reading it, but I have to say.. if you are looking for details, specific methods or examples to draw from, you won't find a whole lot here. I understand the author is coming from the idea that everyone's needs are different and one size does not fit all, even still.. some bare-bones examples would be helpful, especially coming from a guy who's been doing this whole curating thing for a while.

In any case, if this book gives you the spark to get started, you'll figure how to get there without much problem. I'm glad I read it. ( )

This is a good guide to organising your experiences and digital collections, or starting one or more of anything that interests you in what may initially seem a zealously methodical way. Joel Zaslofsky explains quite engagingly, various concepts clearly, using excel, evernote, LibraryThing and others with lots of examples plus links. The avid approach to using both spreadsheets and available apps encourages the reader to focus more on what can add to the enjoyment and experiences of others, while also considering issues such as copyright, uc and digital security. Even if one just wants to be more selective and simplify the personal moments for prosperity, this is a super read. Thank you to the author for this informative book via LT. whose great value of simple site is also an excellent primer to this viewpoint. ( )

This is probably going to be a bit of an odd and rambling review. If you're like me you might understand it, if not then I can only apologise in advance.

Firstly, I'm dreadfully disorganised, and though I'd really like to 'have my act together', sadly, I don't. Papers and thoughts scattered everywhere along with higgledy-piggledy pens and pencils, nothing neatly in a row or easily found. And I love reading fantasy.

So it was strange that Joel Zaslofsky's book, 'Experience Curating', caught my eye, much less appealed. But it did.

I freely admit that I haven't read it from cover to cover. But I have explored, and because of it I started a commonplace book - albeit on paper and not on a spreadsheet. I am also trying to grasp FAOCAS (pronounced focus), an acronym for Filter, Archive, Organise, Contextualise, Access, and Share.

For me the real crux of the matter is: is my life worth curating? I'd like to think so. But I'd also like to think I won't become a dinner party bore off the back of it.

I wish I'd written a journal as I grew up, and as 'curating' is really a super-duper way of remembering stuff I wish I'd been introduced to its concept earlier, too.

'Experience Curating' is worth reading. It might well change your life, or your perception of it. ( )
