Museum 2.0

JANUARY 16, 2013

The group was mostly young (teens to thirties) and nerd-diverse: a little bit punk, a little bit hacker, a little bit craft grrl. In some ways, this event reminded me of the Ontario Science Centre's YouTube Meetup in 2008 --a real-time, physical event to support an online community. It was pretty freaking amazing.

Over the next four years, innovative organizations will use technology to transfer to individuals the reins on everything from program work and evaluation to fundraising and communications. Simplistic appeals targeted at teens and college students don't. Donations will be a consequence of meaningful engagement, not a measurement of it.

I told the story about posting a video interview with my dad (who was 86 at the time) on YouTube about his first blog post and how I discovered a community of "older" people using YouTube. Is it only younger people who are using social media. I answered no.

That's the question the Nonprofit Technology Conference session, "The Seven Things Everyone Wants: What Freud and Buddha Understood (and We're Forgetting) about Online Outreach," tried to answer.

Digital media is being shaped by the private sector (YouTube, MySpace, etc). Henry Jenkins notes that it isn't about the tools and that it was more about the culture growing up around the technology. "We are in a moment of time where 57% of teens produce and share media. Media isn't just happening to kids.

It wasn’t expensive to construct, it doesn’t rely on artifacts, and the interactives integrate technology in a low-key, magical way. I saw teens and adults who sat and did this activity for 45 minutes and wasn’t surprised to hear that some people spend over an hour on it. It is an incredible museum experience.

So, yes, I think the Global NGO Technology Report found the majority of nonprofits do agree social media is effective for creating brand awareness. If you have a tween or a teen, I’m sure you’re familiar with TikTok. They created IGTV to compete with YouTube. There are 30 billion hours uploaded to YouTube each day.

I say all this not to harp on political correctness, but rather to point out that there seems to be a disconnect in the discourse about politics and technology with the actual grassroots, civil society groups who are so often organizing “on the ground”—and the very civil society groups who are doing the hard work of building democracy everyday.
