On Monday I spoke at the Museums Association Social Media, which was an interesting event with a lot of institutions sharing what they are doing with across a whole range of social media platforms.
One surprise to me was that most organisations said they were approaching social media on a project by project basis, though all said that they intended to create a more strategic plan over the coming months. In reaction to this I suggested that we try and create some kind of open source resource to help museums to do this, and yesterday we set up a WIKI to allow people to contribute to what we have called an Open Social Media Framework for Museums.
A few people have started to add content to this, and I’d invite anyone interested to get involved.
