museum and social network, use, expectation

Former student in Art history, after having studied the beginning of social media and museum, my aim is now to go further in creating an observatory for cultural behaviour in social media.

This observatory will be first a blog in French in order to stand as an example for the French cultural community. Further on it will become a Ning community exclusively on social media to let you share your experiences as well as share your outlook.

In order to feed this observatory and make it come to life, all I need is your answers to a few questions,

- What lead your museum on to social network on the first place?

- What was the first social network you chose for your museum and why?

-Do you think being part of some of those social networks is highly recommended? Which of them?

- What kind of participation does your museum seek in those social networks? Have you created an application?

- In what ways has your presence on social networks changed the relationship you have with your public?

- Do you approach your public differently on your website and on your social media presence?

-Do you think it will affect the way museums interact with their public within their walls?

- What are your expectations towards social networks?

- Do you think museums should create their own social network?

I thank you all in advance for your answers

my goal is to share the knowledge in France, learn from yours examples

if you wish to add more of your experiment they will be more than welcome!
