3. Motivations
Such a competitive environment raises many questions:
# Have the museums efficiently joined the Web 2.0
community?
# Do they use blogs?
# Are they visible in social networks?
# Which museums have the best visibility on this new
web?
# and many others
4. The analysis
To answer these questions we have conducted an statistical analysis to evaluate the visibility of museums on the internet (Web 1.0 and Web 2.0) and identify which might be used as benchmarks.
The characteristics of the analysis are as follows:
# 100 sites analysed# Data collected from 22 sites# Data collection period: May – June 2009
