Hey Currentians,
It's time once again to take a look at which groups are growing quickly on Current.com. As I mentioned in a post yesterday, you can get your group featured on both the homepage of Current.com and on the groups homepage by spreading the word and attracting new members to your group!
Each day, between 3-5pm pacific, I take a look at which groups have gained the most new members in the past 24 hours. The group at the top of the pile gets featured prominently, so get out there and let people know about your groups!
Here's today's list of the top 10 fastest growing groups on Current.com in the past 24 hours:
1. Make Marijuana Matter (15 new members) -- curated by hunzedog
2. DigiDose: Love Technology (9 new members) -- curated by brownie4590
3. Indie Film (3 new members) -- curated by Pericles_Lewnes
4. H.E.M.P. (3 new members) -- curated by JackHerer
5. BIBLE COLLEGE (3 new members) -- curated by BIBLECOLLEGE
6. Cyber Security (3 new members) -- curated by stopnoise
5. Internet Radio (3 new members) -- curated by StreamingRadio
6. Martial Arts (3 new members) -- curated by wirehedd
7. Sincerely Sustainable (3 new members) -- curated by theauthor
8. Wrecking Ball Radio (3 new members) -- curated by wreckingballradio
9. Science (2 new members) -- curated by DeliaTheArtist
10. Geek Out Culture (2 new members) -- curated by Kid_Amy
So, there you have it. hunzedog did the leg work and took the top spot today. His Make Marijuana Matter group is now being featured on the homepage, and it will be added to the groups playlist as well. Looking at the overall spread of activity, this is still a pretty wide open field. A serious push on Twitter and/or Facebook could be all that you need to get your group featured. Make sure you tell people to join your group, and it helps to let them know why your group will be some awesome to be a part of on a day-to-day basis. BTW -- if you're a fan of LOST, I think I have just the group for you.
I'll update again tomorrow with a new list and a new top group, so until then, hit up your social networks and promote your groups!Hey Currentians,

Hey Currentators,
Beginning today, we're going to start posting a list of the fastest growing community-created groups on Current.com. There are a few good reasons for doing this. First, it gives you an idea of where your group lands in the larger landscape of group-dom here on Current. Second, this list gives you an opportunity to discover new groups that you weren't even aware existed. Third, getting to the top of this daily list on a regular basis will help get your group featured more prominently on Current.com.
How? We'll take the group that is the "fastest growing group" of the day and feature it in the Current Stories section on the homepage of Current.com. I'm sure there will be some questions about this, so before anyone cries "conspiracy" or "censorship" let me lay out how this will work.
Fastest growing groups are determined based on daily growth in membership alone. In order to grow your membership base, you'll need to promote your group, both on Current.com and in your other social networks like Facebook, Twitter, etc. In order to get people to actually join your group, you'll need to have some interesting (and recent) content in your group. So make sure you've got your curator hat on before you start spreading the word about your awesome new group.
Now, to keep us honest we'll post a list of the fastest growing groups in the past 24 hours on the blog between the hours of 3-5 pacific on a daily basis. The group in the #1 seat gets featured on Current.com's homepage, as well as in the playlist on the groups homepage as well.
So, without much further ado, here is today's list of the top 10 fastest growing groups on Current.com in the past 24 hours:
1. DigiDose: Love Technology (10 new members) -- curated by brownie4590 -- FEATURED!
2. Jon Stewart (8 new members) -- curated by hunzedog
3. The Science Club (4 new members) -- curated by wirehedd
4. Exposing the Wrongs (4 new members) -- curated by stopnoise
5. The Art Gallery (3 new members) -- curated by DeliaTheArtist
6. Mathematics (3 new members) -- curated by SamtheWizer
7. Universal Health Insurance (3 new members) -- curated by lvp
8. Hip Hop Heads (3 new members) -- curated by leo9jai
9. SOCA Music (3 new members) -- curated by DJTonyTempo
10. DMT (3 new members) -- curated by RojoGatto
So, kudos to brownie4590. His DigiDose group is now featured in Current Stories on the homepage, and it will be added to the groups playlist as well. Remember, this is an experiment. We want more and more people to know about our groups functionality, and we figure that we can do this best by calling attention to some of our fastest growing groups. The cool thing is, by growing your groups, you could in turn score the chance to get some added promotion on our homepage.
We'll try this out for a bit, see how it goes, and if need be make some adjustments. I'll update the blog again tomorrow with a new top 10 list and a new top group, so until then promote and curate your groups!Hey Currentators,
