These proposals are highly essential as more and more people are harnessing the power of the Internet and the public’s eagerness. These are demonstrated in digital engagement programs such as Ancestry.com’s World Archives Program (AWAP), New York Public Library’s Map Rectifier Project, US Geological Survey’s North American Bird Phenology Program. Learn more about these programs at crowdsourcing.org/l/1620.

I’ve been working on websites for a few museums over the past year, and they are constantly searching for ways to offer their visitors a more dynamic experience online.

Both are good ideas. Would be interesting to try to include the physical with the digital in thinking about the future – how can we use the spaces of museums, not just their content, to build a new digital public history?
