If you are looking for a simple way to create and manage your data and create JSON files for Exhibit you might want to check out the ExhibitMaker project at http://code.google.com/p/exhibtmaker/ This is a FileMaker database that can export both HTML files and JSON files for creating MIT Exhibits. It does have some limitations but should get you going easily. If you already have data in another format or database that information can be imported into ExhibitMaker.
