Does anyone know a museum participating as a Google Maker Camp "campsite"?

If you haven't seen Nina's blog this week, it's a "must read!" It's an important reminder that there are many different types of museum visitors out there, and while we should all provide access for a diversity of audiences, we don't want to forget those elitist jerks (especially since you and I may fall into that category more often than we'd like to admit).

Here's a possible trend NO one could have imagined. "The nightmare scenarios is it gets established in California and then a mosquito bites someone with an imported case of dengue." 

A fascinating conversation from Nina Simon's blog this week about the intersection of generational demographics and socio-econimonic diversity. Food for thought. . .

Increased accessibility through robotics to museums and countless other places is no longer a dream of the future, it's a reality in many large institutions. The challenge now is to translate these advances for use by the masses.

Another great example of how history doesn't just look back, but helps folks move into the future! Why can't more history museums provide creative outlets for their visitors.
