Blogger invite: Make museums come alive online at International Museum Day 2007
Dear Blogger,
The National Heritage Board of Singapore invites you to make museums come alive online during International Museum Day 2007 (IMD 2007). There will be more than 80 special events over 10 days (18 – 27 May 2007) taking place in 24 museums around the island and you are invited to join the chatter online!
Report “live” from Twitter…
If you’re a Twitter user, add us at http://twitter.com/imd2007 and receive official event updates as well as find out what other IMD friends are up to and what interesting artifacts they’ve found. If you’re not a Twitter user, you still can follow the conversations on http://twitter.com/imd2007/with_friends.
Join the shutterbugs on Flickr…
The IMD 2007 team will be uploading photos of fun and interesting findings from IMD on http://www.flickr.com/photos/imd2007. To join in the fun, simply upload your photos to Flickr and tag them “imd2007”. What a collection it’ll be! You are also free to use these photos on your blogs or send them around as you see fit.
Did we mention the prizes?
We have four S$150 Borders vouchers to give away! Simply join the conversation on Twitter or tag your photos “imd2007” on Flickr and stand a chance to win one of the four vouchers. Competition ends on 28 May 2007.
