Introduction
Curie is a community project run by several Steemit authors. Our mission is to help discover and reward new content creators who are posting all sorts of original content, and give them the exposure that they need. In partnership with 
Hive account@nextgencrypto, 
Hive account@berniesanders, 
Hive account@val, 
Hive account@silversteem, 
Hive account@pharesim, 
Hive account@clayop, 
Hive account@hendrikdegrote and 
Hive account@kushed, Curie aims to provide rewards to these deserving authors whether they are writers, artists, chefs, photographers, videographers, and more.
In full transparency, you will be able to find a published list every day detailing all the posts that Curie has chosen by our curators. At the same time, our hope is that this list will provide more positive exposure to the selected authors. We invite curators to submit hidden gems at #curie on Steemit.chat.
We hope that you will consider following not only this 
Hive account@curie account, but also many of the authors whose work is featured here each day. Please consider adding your comments on these posts also! You can follow Hive account@curie's outgoing votes to see our curation in real time and donate your votes.
Today's Brief Analysis
Today's list polls all posts curated between 17/12 12:00 UTC and 18/12 12:00 UTC. Curie voted on a total of 71 posts. SBD 1,300 has been generated for authors thus far, at an average of SBD 18 per post. A relatively slow weekend, though still a fair amount of good content out there! The average is also up, thanks to a lower volume.
