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).
A fascinating conversation from Nina Simon's blog this week about the intersection of generational demographics and socio-econimonic diversity. Food for thought. . .
MOOCs are perhaps not as effective as people thought they might be a year or two ago. Many providers are now stepping back, studying feedback, and re-tooling for MOOc's 2.0.
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.

From a comments: "we talk so much about the activities and the look and feel of places and don't spend nearly enough time thinking about the sound of a place"
