Curate With Me, Win A Prize: 2015’s Most Coveted Holiday Tech Gifts List!

Human curation matters. We trust recommendations from friends and experts more than suggestions by the best computers. That’s why millions of people come to 9to5Toys, 9to5Mac, and 9to5Google each month to discover our product recommendations!

Product reviews are great if you know the exact product you want to buy, but they rarely cover all the best products in one place. That’s why Curate With Me is here — to connect you with curated lists of great products recommended by friends and experts.

Curate With Me helps you canvas categories of products, apps, and dining experiences that other people are recommending, combining the power of Reddit-style upvotes with Pinterest-like visuals. Lots of experts, including the 9to5Toys team, are already creating Curate With Me guides. It’s a place where gadget fans, beauty mavens, foodies, gamers, home decorators and everyone with product knowledge can come together to spotlight the best of everything!

Browsing Curate With Me

There are two ways to search Curate With Me. The home page lets you type any keyword like “laptop” to quickly find already-curated lists. If no list is found, you can submit a request for a new list to be curated for you by Curate With Me’s staff. You can also use the Explore feature to browse trending lists in Food & Drink, Products, and Apps & Games.

Once you’re inside a list, you see a grid of items. You can click on any item to go straight to a product page, or use icons to upvote, comment, report on, or save any item for later reference. Frequently upvoted items float to the top, while less popular items fall to the bottom. Everyone can vote on the items or add additional items to the list. Top vote-getters are shown first, enabling everyone to find popular recommendations faster.
