MW2008 Birds of a Feather Breakfast Topics

Sponsored by Johns Hopkins University, Museum Studies program

Topical interest tables at breakfast on Friday morning, are always one of the most popular sessions at Museums and the Web (well, except for maybe in New Orleans). An informal breakfast is a great chance to meet people with similar interests from very diverse institutions. You can share solutions to real problems, and even sometimes build relationships that flourish in the coming years.

At breakfast, you can join a table that interests you, or propose a topic on the spot and have others join you at your table. Topics suggested so far include:

  • Geo-encoding collections
  • Handhelds
  • Mashups
  • Open source
  • Personalization
  • Re-purposing media vs. making it new
  • Recommender systems
  • Science learning
  • Second Life
  • Social tagging
  • Teachers using museum resources
