Why does your museum open its doors each day? What other museums do they follow/enjoy visiting? What type of content do they respond to best? Too many organisations go overboard when it comes to creating and sharing content out of an imagined need to adhere to a strict schedule or be at the forefront of audiences’ minds.

Facebook shifted its design to focus on photo and video-sharing in response to data showing that this content is shared way more frequently than text and links. Visual content motivates more responses than text, engages younger participants, and is often cited as a major trend of 2012 and 2013. A trend in which I take almost no part.
