(Moving this back to the group so all can benefit.)

Yup, you finally found your Curation the right (and only way). And you're right that it's very non-intuitive and hard to find. Next on my list is to improve the Member pages and make the whole thing simpler and clearer.

I clicked on the History box from my My Spoken Word page.

Here's another question: how do I find my American History collection?
Shouldn't there be a link to it on my Spoken Word page so I can get to
it quickly or do I have to manually remember the page?

I figured out how to get to it by clicking the "collections" link by
my name in the MySpokenWord section. I didn't find that intuitive. I
kept looking for a link on my main page for collections that I am
curating.

Thanks. I also think we should consider the whole "comments" thing. I
went to add another program to my collection and was told that I
couldn't add it until I commented on it now that the curation is
active. I guess I'm trying to figure out a good workflow to add shows.

Here's what I had in mind. Whether it works or not is another question!

1. Select a show you want to add to your curation.

2. Rate it.

3. Add your review (comment). 

4. Add it to your Curation.

Probably right. Many of the pages need a lot of UI/usability work. The ongoing problem is that there's a lot of functionality and data that have to be available, which makes it hard to keep the clutter to a minimum.
