Dear Andrea,
My presentation at the forthcoming UK Museums on the Web conference (http://museumscomputergroup.org.uk/2012/10/26/programme-for-ukmw12/) will provide a review of as many of the different online collections sharing platforms (as opposed to collections management systems) as I can find. The idea is to look at them in terms of their return on investment for your effort in sharing content through them.
I hope this is useful, all best,
Nick

Subject: Online collections databases
Dear All,
I'm wondering if
anyone can help - I'm currently working on a viability project on whether to update/replace the Wiltshire Council owned website 'Wiltshire Treasures' (an online collections database for Wiltshire museums). I have started investigating existing online collections database platforms and have so far found Europeana, Modes Users Association, Orangeleaf, Historypin, Museum Sites, Culture Grid and e-Hive. Does anyone have any other website recommendations, suggestions, experience of using sites like these, or have decided not to for various reasons? I would be very interested in getting in touch with you if so.
Many thanks,
Andrea Hodgkin
