Part II of Curation Digest's Issues include a comprehensive analysis of the amazing pieces of content nominated. If you saw Part I earlier, you noticed a more visual, quick-knowledge facts version of Curation Digest.
Our goal with doing two parts for each Issue of Curation Digest is to maximize the recognition, awareness, feedback, and rewards for these amazing authors, and also help tailor the information to different audiences.
Some Steemians just want to want a quick list of quality content and go on there way. Part I is perfect for that.
And then some Steemians like to read feedback and analyses. Part II is there for that.
It is just another way to show the Steemit community how much we care about the community and the amazing content creators who make it such an amazing platform to be apart of.
Let's dive on in @buildawhale style.

The first epic piece of content nominated by the Steemit community is @astrovorg's travel life post titled: “Trip to Sabang, weh island.”

This is the most incredible side-by-side bilingual Steemit post we have seen.
The two column format with each side being one language is absolutely brilliant. It is so easy to see the different translation and it doesn't interrupt the flow like so many duel languages' posts do.
And then the content you cover in this post, holy smokes. you are so right , Indonesia is more than just about Bali and you are definitely proving that with your post. You share such incredible, unique original photos its legendary. Where else can you get this incredible, unique perspective.
Steemit posts like this one makes Steemit the place to be for original, unique content from people all over the world. Keep on sharing, especially about that bird species you are researching ;)
Thank you for all you do. We can only imagine how much time, effort, and attention it took you to create this masterpiece of a post. Namaste.

The second incredible piece of content nominated by the Steemit community is @jessamynorchard’s life science post titled: “Elderberry Juice = VOCAL SALVATION! “

@jessamynorchard you changed lives with this post holy smokes. In this epic piece of content highlighted by the @buildawhale Curation Team, she shares life-changing and life-saving information about elderberries.
Elderberries?
I had never heard of Elderberries in my life and I have been helping musicians for years. This post legit will influence the lives of many singers and artists.
This information is so useful and critical; it’s so wild too me that I was not aware of it. And the way you share the information is spot-on. Your flow keeps the reader interested and engaged while also being very thought-provoking and lengthy. Most authors have trouble getting the audience to read lengthy posts. You did not.
Time will only tell how many lives you save with this post.
In this post, you teach us about immune health, vocal health, and the wonder that is elderberries. My business partner read your article about elderberries and is from Amish country and has bee neating them his entire life and had no idea what they do. It is just in his family's culture to eat elderberries and he had no idea why until he read your article.
Now we are planning an elderberry operation, so that we can share them with all the vocalists and rappers we know. With the goal of saving their voice and allowing them to perform for their entire lives.
Thanks again for this life-changing information.

@jokester, your article is GREAT. Thank you for taking the time to explain this in such a way that even someone as clueless about code as I am can understand it!
![U5dshPAaqoMKHA1r3vs1xosqNcyMCqm_1680x8400.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmfKXsF2oJkjMXqRs7b2bVaPLX2Tf3MVLbGe5sEzXVCuW5/U5dshPAaqoMKHA1r3vs1xosqNcyMCqm_1680x8400.jpg)
Obviously your post is very nicely structured and you use visuals brilliantly.
But it’s really parts like this that made me love your writing, “note that text you enter will not support markdown. What does that mean? If you want to make words bold inside this code you can't use markdown and type ** but you must use the < b > command.”
I LITERALLY said to myself, ‘markdown?’ and you answered!
Thank you. It’s a real gift to be able to explain things so simply without coming across as pandering or condescending.
Thank you for sharing your mad code skills and your writing with us!

I don’t know if you have a camera that I need to buy or if the place you were at really was a fairytale, but your pictures are hauntingly beautiful.
I normally don’t like pictures of food, for instance. But this?
I need to eat this every single day for the rest of my LIFE. Amazing.
Thank you for your simple descriptions and for translating them into English as well. I can’t wait to read more of your work, I have the feeling you’re a magical storyteller as well.
Thank you for sharing your photographs and the little glimpses into your soul with us.

I love your beat, my friend. It’s mellow and smooth, and I really dig the reggae vibe. I’ve listened to it a few times, but just now I played it for my husband, I knew he’d like it, too.

My son Bob, who is the real musician in our family, heard and came in from the other room to listen with us. We danced together to your jam...it was beautiful. You gave my family a moment to connect that we would not otherwise had, and that, my friend is priceless.
Words cannot express how grateful I am to you.
I’ve also read your piece a number of times. You break your artistic process down so well and so eloquently even I could follow along, and I don’t know anything about making music.
You write with passion and clarity and I learned a great deal, so thank you for that as well.
So as you can see, I’m forever indebted to you. I have upvoted and followed and resteemed, and can’t wait to see the amazing places you go. All the good thoughts, b.

Wooow! Thank you soo much for your kind words @bethalea :)
You're not indebted ^^ It's just beautiful to know that there are still people who actually take their time and listen to music and really enjoying it. What you wrote really made me happy!
Thank you for taking your time to listen with your family and for giving me this awesome feedback :)
Is you son also on steemit? I'd love to hear some tunes from him.
Keep up the great work @bethalea, aswell as the whole @buildawhale team.
Sending good vibes and happiness

Bob is 9, Malick, but some day! ;)
peace!
Oh okay :D
Well if he's already into music at that age, I bet he's going to be a great musician one day :)
Good article and very helpful information thanks
Thank you and you're welcome :)
Namaste
Most welcome

If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.
