Help & FAQ

On curated.by our users collect and organize tweets into topic based bundles that can be shared or embedded anywhere. Curated.by works a bit like labels for Gmail. We let you organize your tweets around a topic, an event or a company.

You can for example use curated.by to create a bundle with links to Spotify playlists, like Sam did here: http://curated.by/sam/daily-soundtrack

Or you can use curated.by to only display testimonial tweets on your blog, like the Rummble team does here: http://curated.by/Rummble/rummble-2

Or you can use curated.by to create mini lists of great tweets for your friends. Like this one, with the best tweets about good places to have a drink after work in Soho: http://curated.by/bastian/after-work-drinks-in-soho

A bundle is a collection of tweets that you put together or that you can subscribe to. You can find some great bundles on our Discovery page.

You can create a bundle by using our Bundler or our Chrome extension.

When you join curated.by we automatically follow all your Twitter friends that are already using curated.by at the time you join. You can find more friends by visiting our Discovery page or by exploring your friends bundles. Each bundle page features a list of people who are subscribed to this bundle. You can click on any user icon to see a users profile page.

Each bundle has a permanent, unique url that is always associated with the curator and the name of the bundle.

You can change your user picture by visiting the settings page.

You can turn email notifications for special events on or off by visiting the settings page.

There are two ways to add content to a bundle. You can either launch our Bundler and access your Twitter stream via curated.by or you can use our Chrome extension to curate tweets directly from Twitter.com.

Our Chrome extension is the easiest way to curate tweets. After installing the extension you will find a new Curate button below every tweet on Twitter.com. Just click this button to curate a tweet into a specific bundle. Our Chrome extension also let's you create a new bundle while you're visiting Twitter.com.

Over the next weeks, we will begin to roll this feature out to the first users. You will find a Mentions link in your right hand navigation if the feature is active for your account.

Embedding a bundle on a website, a blog or even within a blog article is super easy. Just visit the bundle page and click on the Embed link. We allow you to fully customize our widget before you embed it.

We created curated.by because we want to make it easier to find the good stuff. Browsing Twitter is great but very often there are just too many tweets and it is getting harder and harder to find the really interesting content without spending a huge amount of time sifting through your Twitter stream. Curated.by want's to help where a Twitter list or a hashtag search is just not good enough. We are a community of curators who like to put information together and share them with other people. Our curators take pride in carefully selecting only the best tweets around specific topics.

You can edit the bundle details by visiting our Bundler or by clicking the Edit link in your bundles on your bundle page.

We want to make it easier for people to curate. This is why we talk to a few third party providers about an integration of curated.by into their software. We're also working on a new way to browse bundles and to have more export options for them.
