@Jeber The internet is that last/least/worst place I use that word :)
Curating unorganized streams of mostly ephemeral/superfluous data is high-effort, low reward. Doable, but usually hard to justify. archive.org is a monumental and awesome example, and gets the tippity tips of the tsunami(s).
Curating monographs, maps, digital _publications_, sounds, etc etc; cool and fun. And hard. But fun.
