I might be in love with badatsports.com i don't know what makes this so different from the other blogs we've looked at, it seems less professional or institutional somehow. It seems like its coming from the perspective of a real person who took it upon themselves to become an art critic outside of the elite art loop. There are shock stories, and weird art, and all around weird stuff (I need to see this talking piano for real! Does that fall into the category of robotics/programming/art? the person who made that happen is a GENIUS) I think that must be what it is. This doesn't sound like a museum. It sounds like a person. And yay for videos and the setup just bouncing you back to the main page. I can navigate this.
I might also be in love with storycorps. i'm a sucker for sentimentality. I know I should probably be more critical, but these stories are beautiful. I think I have a new e-addiction. Okay but not more than three in a row, I think I'm crying.
for a museum site, i can't complain about the mca. it leaves me whlemed, not overwhelmed. i'm not afraid of it.

- Hopefully, I'm moving back to the country, or Pittsburgh, ASAP after I get this degree. Oh, and life is nicer when seen as a quilt. All kinds of disparate pieces make a whole when you force them together with a needle and thread. Somehow it will become coherent, and maybe even useful?
i'm glad you enjoyed story corps and bad at sports. they're both really great sites, and especially bad at sports, which is lots of fun.
