You seem to have come across the 'who we are' page of the blog I co-edit, Dulwich OnView, http://dulwichonview.org.uk/ and have grabbed it for for your icon! We dont mind at all, in fact we are delighted.
So take a look at Dulwich OnView http://dulwichonview.org.uk/ which, we think, is unique in museum circles, or anywhere for that matter. It is a blog, or an online magazine really, run by volunteers in order to celebrate our local community and Dulwich Picture Gallery too.
Visitors to the site find it and read it for all sorts of reasons unrelated to the Gallery (interesting local articles, events, people, gossip) and then discover that it is closely associated to the Gallery (run by it's Friends) and used by the Gallery staff themselves to blog informally about what's going on there.
So Dulwich OnView is a free marketing tool for Dulwich Picture Gallery, and is highly successful in reaching new and younger audiences and interesting them in the Gallery.
It has been featured as case studies in many museums web conferences, in research papers, in books about the subject of social networking and virtual communities.
What do you think about the concept?
