Smithsonian Museum Turns to YouTube for Citizen Direction

The Smithsonian (museum) is making an interesting request for feedback on its future. The museum is asking for submissions - call it thought sharing or crowd sourcing - "as [the Smithsonian] begins to imagine [its] future." Perhaps this shows that a museum filled with bones, historical papers and planes can offer nimble thinking too. The new movie  Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian  is also currently offering a nice spike to brand recognition.  Not many museums can gather the critical mass to make an experiment like this work.  We'll see how it fares. It's called the Smithsonian Voice Your Vision Project on YouTube.
