Jeremy, Thanks for the invitation to Doofercall. Enjoyed it very much, so added it to my RSS feed.
Personally & professionally, I hope that more museums will go the route of some university museums I am working with by offering free wifi to their visitors. Besides being a nice perk (available in most cafes) and an essential learning tool (imagine a library without it!), wifi means museums can offer web-based services (such as visitor mobile tours) to enhance the visitor experience. Wifi means you can connect your online services to the in-gallery experience, integrating the range of real and alternatively real museum offerings and treating the visitor like a guest not intruder. I think it's a question of figuring out how to make wifi available not if.
