         Subject: MW2006: Best of the Web Nominations Open

          Museums and the Web 2006
          Albuquerque, New Mexico
          March 22-25, 2006
          http://www.archimuse.com/mw2006/

          The tenth international conference for culture and heritage on-line

Nominations are now open for the 2006 Best of the Web competition,
held every year in conjunction with Museums and the Web Conference.

You are invited to nominate sites for consideration by an
international panel of judges. Please use the on-line form at
http://www.archimuse.com/mw2006/best/nominate.html

The categories are:

      * On-line Exhibition
      * E-Services or E-Commerce
      * Education
      * Innovative or Experimental Application
      * Museum Professional's Site
      * Research Site

        In addition, the Judges will select the Best Overall Museum
Site, from all sites nominated.

New for 2006 is explicit recognition of work from smaller
institutions: Judges may make a separate award in each category for
small museums/budgets.

Please review the category definitions at
http://www.archimuse.com/mw2006/best/categoreis.html before you
nominate a site using our on-line form.

Please remember, this is NOT a popularity contest. You will do better
with one good justification than with lots of separate nominations.

      * Be specific and include as precise a URL as possible, for the
part of the site related to the category you have chosen.

Note that:
      * You many nominate the same part of a site in ONLY ONE one category.
      * You may nominate only one site in each category.
      * You may nominate sites even if you are unable to attend the
Museums and the Web 2006 Conference.
      * All sites will be reviewed by an international panel of
judges, who will present awards at the MW2006 conference in Albuquerque.

Thank you for helping us recognise the Best of the Web!
