Günter, I've been looking for a while with the thought of starting one, since I've found few museum blogs at all.
Here's what I've been keeping an eye on through RSS: Ten Thousand Year Blog http://www.davidmattison.ca/wordpress/ Lessig Blog http://www.lessig.org/blog/ Current Copyright Readings http://copyrightreadings.blogspot.com/ Digitization 101 http://hurstassociates.blogspot.com/ Digitization blog http://digitizationblog.interoperating.info/ I'd like to propose a conversation about this for the Boston SIG meetings, since I think we have a core group of people that could contribute to something really useful for the community.

Museum Blog Hi everybody, I thought you might be interested in hearing about a blog RLG staff launched about 3 weeks ago. We thought that a blog could give those of us who go to a lot of conferences and visit member institutions a nice outlet to write about the ideas and curiosities we encounter along the way. The loose theme of the blog is the intersection of libraries, museums and archives - recent entries have focused on digital preservation, digital asset management, descriptive metadata, etc. Something for everyone! We've called it hangingtogether.org after the rather infamous Benjamin Franklin quote "We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.” If you are a regular blog reader, you might want to add HangingTogether to your feed. If you have not checked out the blogosphere yet, here's your opportunity! http://www.hangingtogether.org/ I'd also be curious to hear from anyone out there who has discovered (or is writing?) a genuine "technology in museums" blog - I haven't seen anything yet. Are there any other blogs out there you find helpful & informative?
