I wish more people would co-opt the term “museum”
Much like The Tomorrow Museum (blog) and The Museum of Curiosity (radio comedy). But only if they’re going to be clever about it. (I don’t care to see a clothing boutique calling themselves a museum because their selection is oh so carefully curated, for example.)
I agree with this. The Tomorrow Museum’s been on my radar for a while now, but I’ve only just recently started actually reading it and I’ve come to like it quite a bit. And the title, especially. I liked what the author/”curator” of The Tomorrow Museum said about picking the title, that it was “hoped people would mistake it for a real place, as some physical location/organization/backing sponsorship grants a blogger immediate authority.” But then she mentions that thanks to a lot of people’s google alerts, the title sometimes pops up in her head as “Tomorrow: Museum.” I love that too. It’s like, I write at a great, and you know what I’m going to do tomorrow? Curate some more awesomeness.
Anyway, The Tomorrow Museum. Great title for a blog, that. But an absolutely fantastic site to back it up.
