Although I am currently at a different conference (Educause West), my mind keeps coming back to MOW, especially after the session on accessibility that I just sat in. Terry Thomposon of the University of Washington gave an excellent presentation that reminding me of the discussion (and admonition) of Jim Angus on the importance of accessibility, especially the proper use of alt and img tags. Terry is part of a grass roots initiative at U of W that is promoting and working hard to make all web pages accessible.

Several people asked for a copy of my presentation, so here is a pdf of it.
Thanks for the attending/participating!

I am developing a workshop on how we as professionals are using Web 2.0 "to expand a museum’s role by promoting new methods of collaboration within itself and with other museums and institutions" and am looking for examples that I can use in the dialogue. I created a wiki for this discussion at http://redberry.pbwiki.com/ (password is "share").

Please join the discussion!
