Peter,
If you are interested in Web 2.0 and happen to speak French you will find some interesting information at <http://www.archimuse.com/ichim07/abstracts/prg_335001554.html>. In general both the site of ICHIM and Museums & the Web <http://www.archimuse.com/conferences/mw.html> offer a wide range of papers about this topic.
Best regards,
Werner Schweibenz

> Betreff: [MUSEUM-L] Visitor Engagements via the Internet and
> othe Technologies
>
> I have searched Museum-L archives and appreciate that, over
> the years, there are many different ways that the Internet
> and related technologies have been used by museums. I am
> particularly interested in its use as a means of
> communication and engagement for visitors/users of the
> museum. The archival information is somewhat scattered, often
> much broader in its applications, and now, perhaps, somewhat
> out of date.
>
> So, my question. Right now, what are some of the ways that
> the Internet and related communication methods are being used
> to successfully engage people of different ages, in different
> ways, to provide them with special experiences, functions,
> information, etc., both while they might be in the museum, or
> away from it?
>
> I would appreciate hearing about experiments as well as
> established programs that have been attempted, or are now
> established, to expand the knowledges/experiences etc., of
> people who are interacting with a museum, for whatever reason
> - from special music provided by the museum as an iPod
> download to accompany visits in collection galleries to
> multi-faceted blogs maintained by the museum. Whatever seems
> to be working, or not.
>
> Thanks for any suggestions you might have.
