I completely agree we need to “explore a fuller dialogue on what these technologies mean” –you may want to see my post on Colonizing Social Spaces where I look at these larger questions in depth. I’m with you that museums need to see these new social spaces as places for outreach.

Still, there is a need to talk about specifics. This post focuses primarily on video editing–not so much on YouTube or the host of YouTube clones. When visitors make their own videos as they do with the Propaganda Video editor or as they do on JumpCut–that presents a major technological shift, with of course much larger implications. What does it mean to for a museum to have visitors “remix” or “edit” their content?

In conversations, Museum professionals need to move beyond discussions of specific technologies and explore a fuller dialogue on what these technologies mean to the experience of cultural content. It is only when directors and curators are informed of the true reach of Web 2.0 (In September 2006, YouTube had 34 million monthly visitors) and how this represents a watershed moment for Museums and cultural institutions to exponentially expand their audience while also making previously obscure content accessible. Once we can get over our love for the technologies (the cool factor) and treat these services as the strategic outreach they are will the adoption rates for these tools truly blossom.
