How does the “Follow” feature work for curations?

This article explains how the Follow button works for curations and how it helps you save shared learning content for later access. 


When someone shares a curation with you, like through Slack or email, you don’t have to keep track of the link to return to it. Instead, you can follow the curation, which adds it to a special section of your Big Think+ account for easy access anytime.

How can I follow a curation?

  1. Open any curation you'd like to follow. 
  2. Click the Follow button on the top right to add that curation to a saved list under your account.


You’ll find a Follow button located on any curation that:

  • You didn’t create
  • Was shared with you by someone else in your organization
  • You accessed through a direct link or via your Curations page

Where do I find curations I've followed?

  1. Navigate to the Curations page from the top menu.
  2. Look under Curations You're Following.

Why should I follow a curation?

Following a curation lets you:

  • Return to it later without needing to find the original link
  • Stay connected to lessons your team or manager recommends
  • See updates made by the curation's creator in real-time

Following doesn’t notify the curator, but all users at your organization can see a count of how many people are following the curation.

How can I unfollow a curation?

  1. Open the curation you’re following
  2. Click the Unfollow button to toggle it off
  3. It will be removed from your Curations You're Following list

You’ll still be able to access the curation if you have the link or return to it from search.
