The
Demonstration Hall provided an overview of the diversity of museum
activity on the web. "Up-Close"
sessions profiled the techniques used to create museum web sites. The
new Group Crit rooms, coordinated by Larry Friedlander
of Stanford University offered site designers immediate feedback about
their sites. For those who couldn't make it to the conference, there's
always the online discussion on the MUSWEB-L: mailing
list.
Mini-workshops
A series of in-depth mini-workshops provided a chance
to see "Up Close" how to use particular tools
and techniques to enhance or evaluate your web site.

Demonstrations
In the Demonstration hall, museum staff showed their
new and recently renovated web sites. Conference delegates explored the
functionality they have created, had an opportunity to visit dozens of booths,
and engaged the developers of these sites in discussions about the choices
they made, the outcomes they've experienced, and their future plans.
