Thanks. One problem with 'dropping by' however is that it ignores the fact that new media has a long history in museums (we've run conferences on it since 1991) and that many of the issues you raised and questions you pose have been addressed over the years (the published reports are all here on <a href="/researchForum" title="search the bibliography">conference.archimuse.com in the bibliography</a>). Indeed, in my view the overarching issue is why museums need to relearn so many of these lessons every year, every decade and why they lack the institutionalization of technology success that would lead to greater progress. Maybe if you return in a few years, we'll have resolved that :-) </p> <p> David Bearman </p> Tue, 21 Apr 2009 15:53:00 +0000 dbear comment 1324 at http://www.museumsandtheweb.com
