*MCG members - don't forget MW2012 is approaching fast; that means Best of the Web nominations are closing very soon now, on February 21st. It only takes a few minutes to nominate a site, and it can be your own project, or one that you admire by someone else. A few screenshots, some text describing what you like about the site in question, and the nomination is complete. These are prestigious awards, judged by a panel of experts from museums and galleries all over the world; it's a real achievement to win a Best of the Web Award. More details below.

Museums and the Web 2012, San Diego, California
Best of the Web Awards 2012
Each year, an international committee of culture technology peers recognises the best new gallery and museum work on the web. Sites of all kinds are nominated by culture professionals from around the world.
The sites are nominated in these categories:
Audio / Visual / Podcast
Education
Exhibition
Innovative / Experimental
Long-lived
Mobile
Museum Professional
Research / Online Collection
Social Media
Nominations can be made here: http://www.museumsandtheweb.com/mw2012/best and are available online for others to review. Only MW2012 registered site users can nominate a site. If you haven't registered, feel free to set up an account, it only takes a minute or two. You don't have to attend MW2012 to register or nominate, and it's all free.
Some smallish print: all registration accounts are reviewed and spam accounts will be deleted. Accounts resulting from a campaign to promote a site will not be approved or will be suspended when discovered. Each registered user can nominate only one site. Sites can be nominated in any one of the categories, and it's fine to nominate a site other than your own.
