Rik visited the homeless avatar: I decided to pop into SL to check it out. I found a bedraggled looking avatar sleeping in a cardboard box with a crude sign asking for donations. I stopped by his location on enroute to the Museums and Second Life meeting dropped some lindens in his donation box. There's YouTube video here.

I’m not an expert on museums who can comment on why museums have websites and what they use that platform for.
