We're also going to be connecting with real gatherings of like-minded people where these conversations go on, about building, designing, making things, solving problems.

We are still thinking about what other types of features would be helpful for exhibit developers. Our primary mission is to make sure that the collective knowledge and efforts that have gone into science exhibit/exhibition development in past (and in the future!) are shared. However, we are thinking of other ways in which exhibit developers might communicate and share information about the process. Does anyone else have thoughts about this? Nina,

I think it would be useful if ExhibitFiles could provide blogspace for exhibit developers to use while they are developing exhibits. Documentation and reviews of exhibits that already exist will be great, but that feels more like an archive to me than a living, evolving source of design information and discussion. With a blog option, you could provide developers a real service (a way to communicate with colleagues about the challenges they are facing in development), as well as bringing people into the exhibit documentation process early. I could imagine for many people, the challenges and questions raised during development could be equally, if not more, interesting and useful than the final reflective documentation. Jim,
