Thirteen museum Web sites for review

They’re from France, Denmark, Australia, even Ireland,…

They’re on water, planets, computers, fine arts,…

They’re world-famous and less famous

They’re backed by physical museums and virtual only

But they’re not representative

Spent some time at each site and make notes of

your assessment of the usability of the site

your personal impression of the site

To be discussed Thursday afternoon, February 26th.
