So here I am in Montreal for Museums and the Web 2008. The journey was ok apart from the obligatory 2 hour delay out of Heathrow. Someone apparently spotted a snowflake on the runway so everything ground to a halt while they dispatched the emergency extreme weather squad to sort it out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They know how to do weather over here. It’s obviously not snowed for a while but there are still remnant piles, 6-7 feet thick just knocking around the town. Show that to anyone in the UK and the transport infrastructure would have fallen apart in seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So – this week at Museums and the Web: Today – pre conference Semantic Web workshop<\/a>. Wednesday, I’m running a blogging workshop<\/a> with Brian Kelly in which I’ll be talking about this blog: why I do it, how it’s going, what I’ve learnt. The afternoon is my workshop on mashups<\/a>. Slides and stuff for all the above coming shortly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then Thursday the conference sessions<\/a> start. Friday and I’m back in front of people with Brian for our paper ‘what does openness mean to museums<\/a>?’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Meanwhile, I’ve provided Jennifer and David with OneTag<\/a> for the week – the aim in a nutshell is to try and capture the ‘buzz’ around the conference by aggregating any blog posts and tweets tagged ‘mw2008’ and do stuff with this content. J + D have found a bunch of willing volunteers to blog alongside the people like me who’d be doing it anyway. Basically, everyone is being encouraged to tag and post as much as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Have a look at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n More later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So here I am in Montreal for Museums and the Web 2008.
